The exhibition Foreign Land explores the complex subject of migration through the eyes of artists with personal migration histories. In a time of conflicts, wars, and a perceived loss of connection, Foreign Land seeks to foster empathy, openness, and solidarity. On Saturday, 18 January 2025, the gallery will have extended opening hours, with guided tours offered throughout the day by our enthusiastic hosts.

Josilda da Conceição is pleased to present ‘Moderate tear, refurbished to be heard’, a duo exhibition where recent works by Johann Arens and Nadim Choufi are brought together. Both artists share a commitment to a poetic rendition of everyday materials that reinserts autonomy and agency. They each find tenderness in found language – ranging from furnishing and signages to lines of poetry – which they press, laminate, and rearrange to not only distill their meaning but also to remind us that redefining these artifacts, whether from public space or spoken language, is integral to our right to participate in shaping our neighborhoods, our collective ideologies, and the societal and spatial structures that underpin our ways of living.
22 Feb up to 29 Mar — Josilda da Conceição
