- Photos in the garden in front of STAM

In the series of portraits entitled ‘18 in 18’, photographer Isabel Pousset directs the lens of her Hasselblad camera at young people born in Ghent in the year 2000. She photographs them at a watershed in their lives, on the threshold of adulthood, with the city as the backdrop. These young people are the face of the city of tomorrow. In their own way, they take ownership of the city and help create the future. Their portraits are on display in a photographic exhibition in the garden in front of STAM.
The photographs are accompanied by audio portraits (in Dutch), podcasts made by Lien Dewaele and Ward Schouppe. More instalments will be added over the exhibition months.
A project supported by the City of Ghent
We recognize people by their silhouette, cities by their skyline. This exhibition challenges our often all too cursory glance at a city. STAM, in association with Museum Rotterdam.
Feel free to touch! A fun children’s trail that leads through every room in the museum. Children become merchants, craftspeople, architects or city trippers and participate in city life. They sell cloth, make coats of arms, face façades and work out routes.
STAM turned ten last year... time for a make-over for the permanent exhibition! Since the end of 2020 you can stroll through the new Story of Ghent.
