Studio visit | Émilie Pierson & Cécile Rivet - Memory and Migration (EN/FR) // Bridderhaus
Two photographic albums found on a sidewalk in Brussels initiated a research residency led by Cécile Rivet and Émilie Pierson at Bridderhaus. The project explores their abandonment and how one can take hold of stories that are not their own. The investigation partially traces a story linked to Southeast Asian migrations in the 1970s-1980s, in the context of the Boat People, and questions what it means to leave a country and transmit memory. Parallel workshops created a space for contemporary experiences of exile and reconstruction. The final showcase brings together images, hypotheses, and productions in a time of sharing — so as not to forget and to imagine a more just future.
In collaboration with Lycée Aline Mayrisch (Immanuel and Sky), SINGA (Ahmet, Hasan, Murat, Kerim, Lucia, Yonas, and Tekleab), and Nos Tribus.
