Haute Nuit
Tatiana Bohm , Julien Celdran , Hanane El Farissi , Pierre Liebaert , Mouhcine Rahaoui , Haleh Zahedi
The exhibition Haute Nuit at ISELP, Brussels, features works by Tatiana Bohm, Julien Celdran, Hanane El Farissi, Pierre Liebaert, Mouhcine Rahaoui, and Haleh Zahedi. The exhibition explores themes of night and darkness as a source of emergence and light, touching upon colonial history, contemporary socio-political issues, violence against bodies, and ancestral rites.
Works presented include Tatiana Bohm's archival photographs illuminated by a magic lantern addressing colonial night, Julien Celdran's sculptures immersed in rivers as part of collective rituals, and Hanane El Farissi's pieces where danger and care intertwine. Pierre Liebaert's photographs capture ancestral renewal rites, Mouhcine Rahaoui's work focuses on the hope for light from the darkness of mines, and Haleh Zahedi's drawings and prints explore the tension between dream and nightmare, hope and dread. The artists navigate the night to reveal the interplay between light and shadow in personal lives and collective histories.
