To be invisible in a text, or to be invisible through a text, is to be illegible, opaque, nebulous, unfathomable, unintelligible, indescribable. This invisibility is often defined in terms of otherness: it's a ruse to protect oneself, or a measure imposed to ostracize and exclude the “inappropriate.”Conceived as temporary scenographic spaces that link writing with architecture, each setting pays tribute to characters, places and language tools that set the scene for the exhibition.

Each chapter of the exhibition will then become a support for a projection, and two sound pieces by three artists whose work has not yet been shown in Brussels: French Algerian rapper Rocé, Greek film director and militant Páola Revenióti, US poet and writer LaTasha N Nevada Diggs.

The exhibition follows on from the series of [PRELUDE] evenings held in December 2023, and is the interstice to the Post-Scriptum planned for June, which will be the occasion for publishing an editorial object taking up the practices invoked during the entire project.


Vernissage Chapter.1 18.04.24 (18:30*—22:00)

*If you are vulnerable (immunocompromised), the exhibition is open to you from 17:30 to avoid the crowds.
