Mitchell Anderson: Rockets

Art & Exhibits

Centre d'édition contemporaine

Mitchell Anderson presents a new edition and bodies of work examining the legacy of post‑war astronautics. Drawing on graphite relics from a V‑2 rocket, children’s drawings and mural motifs, the exhibition stages colour‑in pages alongside wall drawings and hybrid objects that hover between craft and ready‑made. Mixed‑media pieces employ encaustic, embroidery and hand‑written texts to interrogate the rocket as an icon that condenses both promise and violence, situating technological histories within intimate material registers.

Neutrinos, the Ghost Particle

Art & Exhibits

SEU – UNIGE

Through large-scale photographic works, scientific models, archival imagery and interactive displays, the show traces the experimental ingenuity behind detectors such as Super Kamiokande. It juxtaposes cutting‑edge instrumentation with poetic reflections on scale, invisibility and the cosmos, inviting visitors to consider how technological precision reveals fundamental processes that shape our understanding of matter and the universe.

Plates-I-XXXI — Lia Darjes

Art & Exhibits

MEA

German photographer Lia Darjes presents the Plates-I-XXXI series, born from an observation of a squirrel approaching a leftover cake during lockdown. She reconstructs domestic meals, collects their detritus: dishes, flowers and crumbs, and arranges them with care as the beginnings of contemporary still lifes. She then sets a camera programmed to trigger in her absence, sometimes leaving it for nights, allowing animal intervention to capture suspended moments. The series celebrates subtle coexistence between humans and animals and the quiet beauty of a shared world.

In collaboration with the Centre de la photographie de Genève.
