like a river, grief wants to move and flow

Inspired by a quote from Camille Sapara Barton, the group exhibition “like a river, grief wants to move and flow” approaches processes of collective grief and eco-social transformation through installation, video, sound, performance, and community.
The exhibition places the Rhine at its center as a living organism, making it tangible as a site of remembrance, resistance, and movement. Grief emerges as a flowing, transformative force that shapes social and ecological processes. Myths and narratives surrounding water are re-read from decolonial and feminist perspectives.
