Gallery Brulhart is a contemporary art gallery based in Geneva, dedicated to promoting women artists of African and Afro-descendant heritage. Founded within a feminist and intercultural framework, it presents a program of solo and group exhibitions highlighting artistic practices engaged with themes such as identity, gender, memory, and society. Through its exhibitions, the gallery aims to build bridges between African art scenes, the diaspora, and the Swiss art context, while amplifying voices often underrepresented in contemporary art.
Telluric Silhouettes brings together works by Reinata Sadimba (Mozambique) and Tiemar Tegene (Ethiopia). The exhibition juxtaposes Sadimba’s hand-built ceramics and Tegene’s monoprints, united by a carnal engagement with material, a palette of blacks and greys, and an emphasis on texture.
Both artists sculpt or incise human silhouettes—engraving, carving and modeling figures—evoking phases of existence and emotions such as love, grief and discord. Mineral pigments (lime, graphite) and dense patterning lend a telluric, communal resonance to works that question embodiment and collective memory.
Opening: Thursday 29 October, 18:00 – 20:00
