Ensemble de Strates

Free

Artist Sara McLaren offers a sensitive, affective exploration of our relationship to land, place and the trajectories that traverse us. Rooted in a simple question—what binds us to a place?—the project gathers intimate local narratives through encounters and workshops. Stories are translated into earth: participants build layered rammed-earth sculptures, each stratum shaping a testimony. Between personal testimony and collective memory, the installation stages an archaeology of the present, where bodies, words and imaginaries coexist.

Traces organiques

Art & Exhibits

Centre des Arts

Momar Seck presents a series of drawings that accompany his new monograph Poïétiques. Through delicate studies of foliage, roots, textures and organic forms, Seck explores the invisible links between matter, nature and emotion. His sensitive visual language oscillates between close observation and inner poetics, inviting the viewer to slow down and perceive the subtle traces left by time, the earth and the breath of life. The show establishes a dialogue between image and writing.

Opening and book signing on 11 June at 18:30.

Forza Silenziosa – Sofia Cacciapaglia

Art & Exhibits

MABE Gallery

MABE Gallery presents Forza Silenziosa, the second solo exhibition of Sofia Cacciapaglia, whose paintings evoke a quiet, fluid world where forms, bodies, and landscapes gently merge, expressing a soft yet powerful feminine presence rooted in emotion, connection, and subtle energy.

Her work emphasizes transformation, intimacy, and dreamlike atmospheres, where silence carries intensity. Using reclaimed cardboard from her Milan neighborhood, she connects to the ethos of Arte Povera—a movement theorized by Germano Celant and associated with artists like Michelangelo Pistoletto and Jannis Kounellis—by embracing ‘poor’ materials and their histories; however, she diverges through her distinctly figurative and painterly approach, transforming humble surfaces into poetic images that bridge material awareness with narrative, imagination, and contemporary femininity.

Opening: Thursday 7 May, 16:00 – 21:00

12.5 m² – Design x Vegetation for the Common Good

Art & Exhibits

Parc sous les marronniers

Seven emerging designers transform parking bays into site-specific installations that imagine alternative uses for reclaimed urban space. Combining design, planting and crafted structures, the works explore collective wellbeing, ecological practice and public appropriation of infrastructure. Installations range from modular seating and planted interventions to sculptural landscapes that reframe parking as communal terrain. The project foregrounds collaboration between landscape and design, inviting reflection on everyday spatial commons and small-scale ecological strategies.
