Where The Wild Things Are: Solo Exhibition of Simone Post

“A place I return to in order to rediscover wonder. A place where materials are never fixed in their form, where anything can become anything. It is a space where I can become a child again.”

With Where The Wild Things Are, Rademakers Gallery proudly presents the first Solo Exhibition by Simone Post, celebrating her ever-evolving exploration of material transformation and the boundless potential of textile. Through an immersive world where textiles, memories, and imagination become deeply intertwined, Post invites visitors to enter a universe where the familiar transforms into the unexpected.

Using remnants from Drifting Through Textiles, an installation originally created for the Hermès windows in Amsterdam, Simone Post gives existing materials​ - and sometimes even entire works​ - a new life. For the artist, a work is never truly finished. Materials remain in constant motion, endlessly capable of becoming something else. Through processes of dismantling, reimagining, and rebuilding, she transforms textile remnants from the Dutch textile industry alongside pieces from her own family archive into new landscapes and extraordinary realities. Here, textiles become landscapes, trees grow grapes, and imagination takes over.

​S​imone Post invites visitors to drift through these textile worlds and embrace the unknown​ - a space of softness, playfulness, and transformation. Where The Wild Things Are is an invitation to embrace uncertainty, the joy of getting lost, and the courage to follow unknown paths.

On Saturday, September 12, 2026, from 15:00 to 18:00, Rademakers Gallery and Simone Post will host a festive opening of the exhibition. Join us for drinks and bites as we celebrate the opening together. We are pleased to share that Pao Lien Djie, Curator of Applied Arts at Centraal Museum Utrecht, will officially open the exhibition.
