Lola Jay investigates memory, imagery and the ways we reconstruct our past. Working at the intersection of painting and visual culture, she produces oil paintings and painted-objects that reinterpret family photographs, film stills and found images. Her compositions borrow photographic framing to isolate gestures and everyday fragments, questioning how selection, framing and repetition transform recollection. The exhibition examines the porous boundary between intimate and collective memory, showing how images do not merely preserve the past but reshape and remake it. Lola Jay is based in Geneva.

17 September – 13 December

Curators Ghalas Charara and Rita Elhajj present the second part of a two‑part exhibition that shapes a liminal space between listening and gesture. Through acts of defunctionalization, duplication, displacement, fragmentation and sabotage, the participating artists generate potentials for action and reclaim rhythmic breaths, steps and voices. Works from the host collection sit alongside invited pieces to evoke survivance, mourning and resistance, where memory becomes an embrace enacted by bodies searching for—sometimes finding—ancestral gestures through repetition, dance and semantic shifts.

Opening: Thursday 17 September, 18:00
