The exhibition brings together seven women artists from different generations and backgrounds:
Baya Mahieddine, Amal Abdenour, Fêla Kefi-Leroux, Zoulikha Bouabdellah, Katayoun Rouhi, Farah Khelil, and Emma Ben Aziza.
Navigating between heritage and reappropriation, forms of resistance and aesthetic dynamics, the works on view explore memory, shifting identities, and the possible forms of decolonisation through art.
