The Manosphere Oracles (2025-2026)

Bas Emiel Kusters

Youngblood Tetem

Interactive installation to talk with two divine archetypes: Apollo and Dionysus. Apollo stands for the cold, over-rationalized, stoic side of toxic masculinity, which dominates politics. Dionysus stands for the chaotic, impulsive side. Both figures are made up of the rhetoric of the manosphere, the world of incel culture, certain artists and influencers. You make a question, the gods answer.
