“Debris” is an exhibition featuring work by Darja Bajagić, David Wojnarowicz, Haim Steinbach, Lizzi Bougatsos, Nevine Mahmoud, and Renaud Jerez. The materials of the artist, borrowed from the everyday, are capsules of the culture and individual’s spirit. They act as archives for the creators and portraits of their landscape. Displayed, manipulated or copied, the spectacle of the object is prevented from evanescence.
