Stories of Absence (2020)

Multimedia Exhibition
Stories of Absence is a multimedia exhibition that unfolds a selection of stories of absence. In response to an open call, 41 artists from all over the world shared their experiences of someone being there and not being there at the same time. A collection of video, audio, and dance was created in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemics and housed in a folded architectural structure.
