‘Things Change Anyway: Trying, Feeling’ is a collaboration between MC Coble and Louise Wolthers, exploring various forms of metamorphoses in life and of the body, relationships and nature. The exhibition presents photos, drawings, video and film material, text, found objects and textile works, all intricately woven together into entwined layers of meaning. The installation highlights the complexity of disentangling ongoing processes of change, and how queer relationships, self-chosen family structures and non-human kinships open up new possibilities for connection.'

Things Change Anyway: Trying, Feeling’ opens a personal archive and private photo album, offering a visual diary of intimate moments and everyday situations. At the same time, the works also make manifest just how differently society responds to life’s transformative processes, depending on how normative and recognizable they appear.
