object art exposition Museum Jan Cunen

Studio TAMTAM object art in Puppetmasters expo

Following the successful object art exhibition at MIMIK in May and June of this year, we had another opportunity to exhibit some of TAMTAM’s latest visual art.

Ten works were on display at the Jan Cunen Museum in Oss from September from January 14 to 25, 2025 in the beautiful exhibition “Puppetmasters.”

On display were object assemblages that resemble tranquil theater scenes or snapshots of characters from imagined performances.
While TAMTAM’s wordles performances clearly relate to visual art, these works are imbued with an unmistakable theatricality.

Below is an overview of the exhibited works.
