From 20 – 29th June 2024, the art world will converge at 236 Rue Saint Martin, 75003 in Le Marais for a transformative experience over sound, art and emotions. "Other Side of Hope/9 days" is not just an exhibition; it's a journey through the depths of human emotion, from the unconscious to the conscious, from sorrow to hope.
Dr. Wumen Ghua's curatorial concept revolves around the Möbius ring, symbolizing the cyclical nature of hope and existence. The exhibition invites visitors to embark on a helix sequence journey, exploring themes of loss, loneliness, and ultimately, the resilience of the human spirit.
Inspired by the experimental musical group Mola Oddity's newest album, "The Other Side of Hope," each day of the exhibition corresponds to a track from the album, weaving together music and visual art in a harmonious symphony of expression.
Birdy K., the founder of the band, lends her lyrical prowess to the exhibition, infusing it with her words, voice, and heart. Featuring artists from diverse backgrounds, "Other Side of Hope/9 days" transcends geographical and cultural boundaries, offering a doorway to the other side where hope resides. From Joar Nango to Zhang Peili, each artist contributes a unique perspective, creating a convergence of consciousness that is both powerful and profound.
Dr. Wumen Ghua, Mongolian painter and curator based in Amsterdam, her curatorial interests revolve around human kindness and vulnerability in our time, reflecting on the exhibition, stating, "This exhibition is an attempt to seek hope across multiple universes and their personal significances. Searching for hope is needed in a world that may be broken but precious."
