It’s All Right - night

It’s All Right is an immersive installation that explores the complex emotions surrounding the climate crisis. Inspired by ‘Here Comes the Sun’ by The Beatles, the phrases 'here comes the sun' and 'it’s all right' are slowly hollowed out, changing their meaning from reassurance to discomfort. Thus, the work reflects the inner struggle that many people experience: hope, denial, and growing unrest about the future.

The work embraces disruption and estrangement and takes the viewer on a journey from initial calm to an overwhelming sensory experience, where the sun transforms from a symbol of life and renewal into a threatening force: a tension between soothing and danger. 

It’s All Right is a layered audiovisual collage that reflects the chaotic and contradictory nature of the public climate debate. Instead of providing ready-made answers, It’s All Right invites you to face discomfort and reflect on your own role and place in a world increasingly under pressure from ecological changes.

By Anne Fehres and Luke Conroy, the work Revival Roadshow is also on display during Into The Great Wide Open. 

About Anne Fehres and Luke Conroy
Anne Fehres (1988, Netherlands) and Luke Conroy (1990, Australia) form an interdisciplinary artist duo exploring urgent socio-cultural narratives such as identity, nationalism, climate change, digital culture, and decolonization.

Their work unfolds at the intersection of physical and virtual realities, using collage as a conceptual and aesthetic strategy to playfully disrupt, mix, and reframe images, sounds, and stories from diverse sources – a reflection of the fragmented nature of digital culture. They work with photography, video, sound, textiles, virtual reality, and performance, creating layered projects that combine documentary research with speculative storytelling. Their practice embraces contradiction and complexity, utilizing humor and critical insights to invite the audience to reflect on how we perceive, remember, and shape our world within rapidly changing digital and social landscapes.

Anne Fehres and Luke Conroy participated this year as the first artists in the residency project Standplaats Vlieland

The art program is made possible with support from Mondriaan Fonds and De Versterking.
