The duo exhibition Memory Shelf by Gritli Faulhaber and Augusta Lardy Micheli invites viewers into a delicate dialogue between presence and absence. Their works, displayed side by side but never fully aligned, explore the edges of perception and meaning.

Together, they navigate the space between hesitation and revelation, inviting us to linger in what resists clear definition.
