The Wall of She: group exhibition at Gallery Sofie Van de Velde
The Wall of She brings together artists whose work draws on personal history, bodily experience and collective memory. Moving across painting, sculpture, performance, video and installation, the exhibition is shaped by a shared trust in process. Attention and intuition guide the act of making, as control and release alternate throughout the works.
Themes of femininity, migration, identity and power run through the different practices as underlying currents. Rather than appearing as fixed subjects, they emerge through material choices, image-making and the ways the works address the viewer. The Wall of She thus creates a space in which artists look not only at history and at themselves, but also at one another.
