Digesting Tubes

Until 15 May 2025 from 10:00 to 22:00

Exhibition

The Westzaal in the ARTIS-Groote Museum is filled with work by artist and future food designer Chloé Rutzerveld. Her exhibition Digesting Tubes is about how we humans take in food.

Food crisis

The solution to this food crisis is often sought outside ourselves. By now, everything on our plates has been made bigger or juicier, or easier to produce. But what happens if we don't adapt our food to humans, but humans to food? That is what future food designer Chloé Rutzerveld explores in her latest art installation Digesting Tubes.

Chloé Rutzerveld

Ever since Chloé Rutzerveld (1992) graduated as an industrial designer on a 3D-printed edible vegetable garden, she has been creatively researching the future of food. Her installation Eating Tubes goes a step further. In it, she challenges visitors to think about how much we ourselves are willing to change for a more sustainable planet. Chloé says: ‘The idea that we are all “eating tubes” fascinates me enormously: a kind of tube from mouth to butt in which food is converted into energy. So yes, I sometimes look at my poop in amazement. We would put less strain on the earth with a plant-based diet, but then we have to become more efficient herbivores.'

In her art installation, she presents visitors with three scenarios from an extra organ, modifying our DNA to a shot of bacteria: Digesting Tubes invites us to think about our insides.
