M3M0RY L33N
M3M0RY L33N is a visual journey crafted by artist Kaspar Dejong in collaboration with designer Florian Mecklenburg. This zine weaves together fragments of photographs, paintings, visual research, and writings, mapping thoughts, drawings, and routes within public spaces. By reordering these elements, the zine dissolves their original context, transforming them into a dynamic stream of imagery that invites readers to explore new meanings and unexpected connections. At its core, M3M0RY L33N reflects Dejong’s fascination with the traces people leave behind, his curiosity for urban remnants, and the habitats humans shape within these spaces.

Raum 24/3
Kaspar Dejong (Maastricht, NL, 1995) and Moritz Lindur (Köln, DE, 1993) both show in their practice a soft spot for the imperfect. Most of Dejong’s work sources from his close living environment: the city. Moritz’s work is a frenetic and hyperactive exploration of the many facets of humankind, language and both societal and global issues. In his book ‘Madness and Civilization,’ Foucault speaks about the institutionalization of mentally disabled people, who were in the renaissance to be seen as a different form of intellect rather than ‘crazy or mad’. They were seen as free spirits, not bounded by rules nor regulations. They ought to pose a kind of wisdom, because they demonstrate the limits of reason. Lindur and Dejong tend to seek that which displays the madness in modern life, situations that somehow demonstrate our own limits of reason. The moment when the planned, gets disrupted; when the beauty of incompetence shows itself’. In the exhibition 24/3 Lindur and Dejong show a selection of works including a book-publication that emphasise the daily imperfections that surround us.

In Broad Daylight
There are many ways to approach a city, and many things a city can be. The urban landscape is planned. It is a structure with well inserted hints and instructions for its inhabitors to make use of it or how not to. What can we learn from exploration through the city? One who looks beyond the encrypted sets and structures may find other aspects to it. Where do controversy and disruption within the planned landscape come at stake? Might this allow for a more free approach of the public space, and a more complex reading of the city?
