Traces of Presence: Group Exhibition

Traces of Presence gathers artists whose practices examine what remains beyond immediate visibility. Through painting, photography, abstraction and material transformation, the show explores presence as memory carried through matter, process and perception. Roxana Bergt reworks still-life into vessels of memory and resilience; José Yaruro reinterprets classical forms; Marie Deforche paints quiet moments of solitude. Luca Mancone repurposes receipts and thermal paper; Eilena Braye converts microscopic structures into vivid abstraction; Justyna Maria Porowska and Didier Van der Borght negotiate geometry, surface and imagined silhouettes.

Opening: Thursday 11 June, 18:00-20:00

28 April – 5 July

Artist Jessica Decorvet investigates the landscape as an unstable concept where seeing implicates participation and representation transforms the world. The exhibition brings together drawings, textiles, ceramics and living plants to stage tensions between intense, almost vital wonder and cultural framing that distances the living.
Playing with scale from miniature objects to a monumental curtain, Decorvet unsettles assumptions: textiles become stained glass while ceramics verge on reliquary. The works evoke and question how perception and materiality shape our relation to place.

Opening: Tuesday 28 April, 18:00

9 June – 8 July

Le Palais des Tressaillements brings together a group of contemporary artists who examine the legacy and circulation of images. Through photography, installation, mixed media and archival practices, the exhibition investigates how visual cultures shape identities, memory and collective narratives. Works by Yvan Alvarez, Tim Bruggeman, Aline d’Auria, Lina Geoushy, Mårten Lange, Magdalena Wysocka and others propose strategies of appropriation, re-signification and poetic reassembly to resist dominant representations and to imagine alternative filiations.

Opening: Tuesday 9 June, 18:00 and guided tour with the artists (in French and English)

28 May – 11 July

Song Ruijin presents her first institutional solo exhibition, assembling a new series of paintings and ceramic sculptures within a site-specific installation. She constructs an unstable universe where the sky becomes ground and interior merges with exterior, populated by emoji-like figures that reflect individual alienation and the absurdities of digital capitalism. Through a syncretic visual language of accumulating imagery—sometimes comforting, sometimes unsettling—her sensory installations reveal logics of exploitation and control affecting human and non-human actors.

Opening: Thursday 28 May, 18:00

28 May – 14 June

American artist Chad Turner presents photorealistic portraits executed in freeform crochet. Working with a single hook and diverse threads, Turner translates sources — old photographs, paintings, AI-generated images and family memories — into textile surfaces that range from intimate panels to works exceeding a square metre. The exhibition highlights his labour-intensive process and technical solutions for rendering subtle chromatic contrasts, revealing how fibre, texture and colour combine to produce uncanny, tactile likenesses.

Opening: 28 May 18:30

8 May – 27 September

Vladimir Kartashov presents site-specific installations that unfold across historic island spaces, exploring temporal sequences and memory. Through sculptural interventions, architectural adaptations and subtle interventions in sacred interiors, the artist stages a choreography of objects and light that reconfigures perception of place and time. The series juxtaposes material rigor with ephemeral gestures, inviting reflection on duration, ritual and the layered histories embedded in built environments.

Opening:  Friday 8 May, 19:30
In the presence of the artist
Musical performance by Manuel d’Amico Principle Double Bass of the Orchestra Regionale Filarmonia Veneta

9 June – 22 September

The Miraculous Geneva is a group exhibition that brings together contemporary Geneva-based artists in tribute to the late artist Daniel Orson Ybarra. Featuring works by Stéphane Ducret and other renowned local artists, the exhibition celebrates the diversity and vitality of Geneva’s contemporary art scene through painting, sculpture, and multidisciplinary practices.
