L’herbier de la mémoire

The exhibition “L’herbier de la mémoire” at Espace Muraille showcases the creative works of Laura De Bernardi, Gergana Mantscheva, and Laura Sánchez Filomeno. The artists delve into themes of memory, identity, and nature using botanical specimens, embroidered roots, and painted plants, reimagining the herbarium as both a poetic and archival gesture. Their pieces interact with each other and the exhibition space, providing insight into cultural memory, individual expression, and the symbolism inherent in the plant world.

Delphine Reist and Laurent Faulon transform Villa Bernasconi with an immersive exhibition that returns each room to its original function. Through object-based artworks, automatons, accumulations, and scale shifts, they craft an atmosphere of eeriness and unease.
