Not to be Senseless – iii x Rewire x JTTS
Not to be Senseless is a playground for the senses, focused on and from the neurodivergent experience, and where concepts connect to consciousness about diverse needs.
There is a limited number of visitors so please reserve your spot HERE!
‘Not to be Senseless’ is a stage for neurodivergent art with people and pieces that experience and explore neurodivergencies such as synaesthesia, savantism and autism. This accessible event opens up new perspectives by recognising differences in how we sense the world. Organized by iii in collaboration with Journey Through the Senses and Rewire. Curated by Maria Oosterveen.
This edition of Not to be Senseless will take place on Saturday 5th April at The Swing in Amare as part of Rewire Festival.

Natalia (Nika) Sorzano is a Colombian artist based between Bogotá and Rotterdam, working primarily in the forms of mixed media installation encompassing performance-to-video, sculpture, music and painting. In my work I inquire how relations between human and more-than-human species, objects and spaces unfold and how they affect our subjectivity.
Mud and Sticky Band is a sound installation that generates voices and sounds from within. The work examines the interaction of texture, sound, form, space, and material qualities in shaping her desire. It presents this process as a collective, eco-social exchange between bodies, spaces, and matter.
Mud and Sticky Band will be part of Proximity Music: Echoes of Entropy from 04 – 06.04.2025.
Bjarte Wildeman Bjarte Wildeman creates performances with the mechanisms found in, and defining the Body, and its surroundings. Building choreographic apparatuses, he researches the body’s anatomy, limits and their psycho-socio-somatic effects. He is intrigued by bodily motion, the physical experience, altering these experiences and biohacking, and researches (mostly) through performance-installations.
Striae a performance/installation exploring rigidity through flexibility, based on (bio)tensegrity structures and systems. This work investigates the interconnected nature of support and resistance across multiple domains. Connecting our anatomy, social and political systems, and protest movements through large-scale kinetic installations.
Anita Hubner is a psychologist that had a psychosis herself. Her psychologist told her, when she was 21, she never would become a psychologist but she pushed through and made it her specialty to write and talk on an international level about neuro-inclusivity and mental-health.
Neurodivergent psychologist Anita Hubner will contextualise the Not to be Senseless program with a presentation about neuro-inclusivity and mental-health. This talk will be in Dutch.
