The duo exhibition Memory Shelf by Gritli Faulhaber and Augusta Lardy Micheli invites viewers into a delicate dialogue between presence and absence. Their works, displayed side by side but never fully aligned, explore the edges of perception and meaning. Faulhaber’s large-scale collages evoke quiet, breath-held moments where absence speaks volumes, while Lardy’s paintings reveal sudden gestures born from long internal reflections. Together, they navigate the space between hesitation and revelation, inviting us to linger in what resists clear definition.
Opening on Thursday July 10, from 18:00 to 21:00 on the occasion of the Nuit des Bains.
