⪼ Exhibition | Exhibition September 27 – October 19, 2025
Inspired by a quote from Camille Sapara Barton, the group exhibition “like a river, grief wants to move and flow” approaches processes of collective grief and eco-social transformation through installation, video, sound, performance, and community. The exhibition focuses on the Rhine as a living organism and makes it tangible as a place of remembrance, resistance, and movement. Grief appears as a flowing, transforming force that shapes social and ecological processes. Myths and narratives surrounding water are re-read from decolonial and feminist perspectives.
