Dorine van Meel
IAS Open Programme
Gerrit Rietveld Academie & Independent Artist
Dorine van Meel (1984) is a Dutch artist based in Brussels whose work spans moving image installations, performances, and publications. Her practice addresses various socio-political questions, using poetic language to expose current power structures while also exploring modes of resistance. She has exhibited at international venues including the South London Gallery, KW Institute in Berlin, Nottingham Contemporary, Transmediale, the 10th Berlin Biennale, and Extra City.
Her collective projects reflect a commitment to feminist and self-organised methodologies, and include The Southern Summer School (BAK, Utrecht), Gentle Dust (Jupiter Woods & Berlin Biennale), and In the Eye of the Storm (rile*, Brussels). From 2023 to 2025, she directed Planetary Poetics, a master’s program at the Sandberg Institute focused on the ecological crisis and the ways cultural practitioners can engage with, respond to, and intervene in it. She currently teaches at the Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam.
During their IAS Fellowship, Dorine will be collaborating with Dr Carina Brand from the School of Design and Creative Arts and Yasmin Canvin from LU Arts / Radar.
