La Chaufferie – Fondation Fiminco
From March 18 to May 6, 2023
From March 18 to May 6, 2023, the Fondation Fiminco invites the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles, currently closed for renovation, to invest its spaces as part of its Trouble-Fête#Cosmogonies Spéculatives Season with the Symbiosium project, the heart of which is a collective exhibition centered around the issues of symbiosis, interactions between organisms and the emergence of new narratives on our time.
This Manifesto group exhibition is complemented by a program of performances, conferences, artist film screenings, workshops, meetings and tours bringing together artists, thinkers and creators around artistic approaches that probe the question of life, its irreducible temporality, the question of the structuring of reality and the narratives that virtualize it.
The exhibition is conceived as a living territory to be experimented with, in which more than ten new works will be created, some of them just for the duration of the exhibition. A real laboratory of creation and ideas proposed to all the public during 7 original, evolving, immersive, performative and participative weeks to experience a vision of the world as the place of a collective creation of the word and the thought between all the communities of the living beings: the symbiosium. 7 weeks to “freaktiionnaliser and décoïncider the reality” according to the expression of Stéphanie Pécourt, director of the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles. The exhibition is curated by Christopher Yggdr and Stéphanie Pécourt.
