‘Er kraait geen haan naar’ –
Narges Mohammadi, solo exhibition
Mohammadi creates an almost dreamlike installation, blurring the boundaries of reality. In this monumental, site-specific work, conceived especially for Barbarella, Brutus’ raw underground exhibition space, she seeks to give form to long-lost childhood memories. Hollow alabaster shapes, thin enough for light to pass, stand as symbols of how scarcity can hollow lives, yet also of the strange, magical resilience that blooms in hardship.
Step into a world of memory and form, join us for the opening. We will dance the night away with a special DJ set by Narges Mohammadi herself, ZINEB and Spicy Dokha.
