Juni 2025 – present

UMU (University Museum Utrecht)

If you had to describe yourself in one word, which word would you choose? A party animal, a stress-case, or perhaps a joker? Does that word fully capture who you are, or is there more to your story? Doctors and psychologists also use words and labels to better understand you, think of labels like ADHD or autism. But how useful are such labels really?

In the exhibition More Than Your Label, I invite you to explore this topic through a series of compelling collage portraits of people who have experienced being labeled. You also have the opportunity to create your own portait. Which labels do you give yourself and your family members?

Watch videos of scientists and people with lived experiences. What do they think about the use of labels? And what do you think? Join the conversation!
