CAROLE MOUSSET
Sugar for the pill
Installation view, DeStudio, Antwerp Art Weekend, 2022
curated by Zeynep Kubat
« We need time and space for recovery. Not only from physical, but also from social ills. How can society heal from its self-inflicted wounds and from its collective traumas? Art can reveal those wounds and bittersweetly help us heal through confrontation and recognition. Collective healing becomes possible after individual detoxification. Through deep, sometimes even bodily, introspection, we must learn to make room for emancipation. This exhibition is an invitation to descend into an ethereal and visceral space of remediation; an artistic sanatorium where we question the existing frameworks of our corporeality and accelerate our societal metabolism. »
With works by Margaux Schwarz, Laurie Charles, Chantal van Rijt, Lysandre Begin, Saddie Choua, Aurélie Bayad, Eline de Clercq, Lisa Ijeoma, Pélgaie Gbaguidi, Carole Mousset
