We are so happy and proud of Melati Suryodarmo who will receive the prestigious award the Bonnefanten Award for Contemporary Art (BACA) alongside with the opening of her Solo Exhibition I am a Ghost in My Own House today.

The BACA is the most important international award of the Netherlands for artists from other geo-cultural regions. In 2022, it is being presented for the eleventh time. The focus in this award lies on surprising, under-represented art practices that exceed or lie beyond the geographical and/or cultural boundaries of the dominant Western canon.

Melati has worked with Lilith several times and today at the ceremony at Bonnefanten she will perform Transaction of Hollows a commission and a Lilith production in 2016. We are so happy and proud of Melati.
