Metahaven
artist collective / multimedia
Metahaven’s work (Vinca Kruk and Daniel van der Velden) encompasses the practices of filmmaking, writing, design, and installation, and is united conceptually by interests in poetry, storytelling, digital superstructures, and propaganda.

Their work is frequently exhibited and published throughout the world.
