Echo Chamber is an immersive, interactive and participatory exhibition that probes self-image and perception. Housed in a contained space, it stages a sequence of installations and collaborative artworks that invite visitors to engage, modify and reflect on representations of identity. The show extends into a virtual environment, using audiovisual and sensor-driven elements to examine how images circulate, transform and are interpreted—raising questions about gaze, agency and consent in contemporary visual culture.

14 September – 17 October

Through textiles, photography, performance, and writing, Vanessa Riera explores the visible and invisible burdens that permeate women’s experiences: norms, legacies, and inherited traumas, but also care, healing, and resistance. The title evokes those micromovements that allow the body to endure, adapt, and transform—gestures sometimes imperceptible, yet profoundly meaningful.

Opening during Geneva Art Week on September 16, 18:00

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

29 January – 25 October

John M Armleder presents an interchange-based exhibition that foregrounds objects drawn from students’ suitcases. Through object-based works and subtle interventions, the show probes modes of observation, intimacy and collective memory. Personal belongings are rearranged as visual prompts that evoke histories, pedagogy and everyday cinematics. The artist’s restrained interventions invite reflection on how small domestic items circulate meanings and facilitate encounters, revealing how private narratives surface within a communal field of attention.

16 September – 10 October

Pierre La Police presents a retrospective of his work, spanning contemporary comics, digital art, installations, video and short film. Renowned for an absurdist sensibility and skewed humour, his practice blends hand-drawn sequences with experimental visual techniques and digital processes. The show traces recurring motifs—playful disruption, narrative fragmentation and visual experimentation—offering a layered survey of an artist who has expanded the language of comic art into installation and moving image.

16 September – 16 October

An Imagined World invites visitors into the singular and captivating universe of Mary Shalizi. Created instinctively, Shalizi’s works unfold through vivid colour, intricate patterns and recurring symbols. Figures, animals, architectural forms and imagined beings inhabit compositions that balance memory, imagination and inner experience. The exhibition brings together a selection of works on paper, offering an intimate view of the artist’s personal visual language developed over many years.

17 September – 3 November

Swiss artist Seline Burn presents a series of about a dozen paintings that explore liminal territories where identities, emotions and relationships transform. Figures in motion, in relation or in passage emerge from an omnipresent water, which functions as memory, inner landscape and dream space. Recurring colours weave a sensitive thread through contrasts and tensions across the works. The exhibition encourages contemplation of ambivalence and the possibility of finding forms of belonging within transient states.
