Artists and friends Kenneth Aidoo and Tom van Veen present work in the duo exhibition ‘We Came a Long Way’, reflecting on the meaning and value of friendship.

The works are a painterly ode to brotherhood, collective memories, shared recognition, and the possibilities of a larger community.

Tom van Veen explores how phenomena such as music, fashion, nightlife, and events connect people in contemporary progressive communities. The works featured in this exhibition highlight the beauty of a sense of togetherness.

Kenneth Aidoo’s work delves into his relationship with Tom van Veen. Through a series of intimate paintings, Kenneth Aidoo portrays what binds him to Tom van Veen: shared joy, sorrow, taste, interests, and also an acceptance of each other’s differences.
