In Seeds of Plenty, Eric Giraudet de Boudemange (France/Argentina, 1983) explores the intertwining of stories of growth, health, agriculture and the global economy. Drawing inspiration from local traditions and folklore, he reflects on how agriculture and trade have shaped landscapes and identities in the Netherlands and beyond, and the impact this has on our daily lives.
For his solo exhibition at 1646, the artist uses the Fruit Corso in Tiel (NL) as a starting point. This is a festive parade celebrating food abundance by featuring floats decorated with fruit and vegetables. In 1961, it was created by the local producers of the Betuwe region to promote their local products.
Through newly produced sculptures, videos and installations, Giraudet de Boudemange connects the personal with the political, exploring how the capitalist promise of abundance collides with questions of sustainability, well-being, and the limits of endless growth. Agriculture becomes a mirror of society’s desires and contradictions — a stage where power, fertility and imagination converge. The artist invites us to consider how our own bodies become an extension of these cycles of production and transformation.
