the hollywoodreporter 8-9-2014 by Rebecca Kleinman
"The emphasis on art rather than on celebrities and society sets the gala apart, according to Lisa Anastos, chair of Watermill’s Contemporary Council. Two of the 27 site-specific works really resonated with viewers. London and Rotterdam based Mette Sterre’s Hummelmania was comprised of four performers whose heads and faces were entirely enveloped in rubber bands like overgrown lion’s manes leading up to the finale in a full-body suit resembling The Wizard of Oz’s Cowardly Lion post-makeover."
HAMPTONS ART HUB BY GABRIELLE SELZ 1-8-2014
"In Mette Sterre’s installation, Hummelmania, a tribe of rubber band people gaily perform the imaginary task of typing on invisible typewriters. Wearing masks and bodysuits made entirely of rubber bands, Sterre’s sculptures come to life like animated cartoons along to a Disneyesque soundtrack. Similar to the soundsuits of artist Nick Cave, and to the great Walt Disney himself, Sterre is interested in using costumes and humor to anthropomorphize the material world."
Mister motley - hanna Hagenaars 27-12-2013
"Er is een geweldige sculptuur helemaal van elatiekjes gemaakt, een soort mannetje dat je kunt nerzetten maar ook als pak is te dragen, daar zou toch iedere kantoor enorm van opknappen (Mette Serre, een aanbeveling met stip)."
The Top Ten: Ten of the best from MiAL by Claire Flannery
"Claire Flannery, reveals her favourite ten pieces from the last three years, admitting “it has been an impossible task to not include so many more, as they are all so inspiring and have such bright futures ahead of them.”
wow 24/7 Tim Barnes 24-12-2013
"Mette Sterre proposes a new living physique. Her performances involve possessing inanimate sculptural forms with her own animate self, inhabiting objects as though to give life to lifeless things. The sculptural costume and performance remnantStructurealist now sits on the floor, static but still somehow alive with potential. Its spiky surfaces are made from two hundred metres of folded netting, perhaps recalling the intestinal structure and numerous intricate pathways of the mind."
the[video]Flâneu® Von Richard Rabensaat
"Das Video von Mette Sterre ist wohl die seltsamste Performance, die das Festival „Direct Action“ im Institut für alles Mögliche in diesem Jahr erreicht hat...Auch der 2011 frisch ausgerufene „Monat der Performance“, innerhalb dessen „Direct Action“ stattfand, war davon nicht verschon geblieben. Das Spektrum der Filme im Institut reichte von der eher unspektakulären gefilmten Aktion des Performers, der verkleidet, vom Kofferraum kommend, umständlich über ein Auto robbt, bis hin zu der surreal anmutenden Sequenz von Mette Sterre."
Ian brooks about the hummelman
"We’re all composed of tiny parts, from atoms to experiences that shape who we are. And while electrons may be tying us together, it’s really rubber bands that keep us from flying apart in 6 million different directions. Mette’s rubber band body reflects our connection to the material world we ourselves created and put emphasis on, becoming the very things we made to hold us together."
happy famous artists Guilia Cassalini 7-2-2104
"For using the masque as a tool to freely express alternative subjectivities and thoughts, which could sometimes be identified as “madness” (as in Tony Morgan), we have Jenkin Van Zyl and Mette Sterre."
Jfk magazine, Ted langenbach 14-12-2012
"Welke namen moeten we specifiek in de gaten houden in 2012?
Op het gebied van mode Anne Kluytenaar, Yoshji van der Aa en Yvonne Kwok. Wat kunst betreft zeg ik let op Tinkebell, Isabel Schulz en Mette Sterre."
