Artist Talk with Aïda Bruyère
Aïda Bruyère will speak about her work and how it led her to her current project MEGACAPITAL, mapping the music from Lagos to Abidjan and studying what this says about the future of this region.
No need to RSVP. All are welcome!
Aïda Bruyère lives and works in Paris, where she graduated from École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2020. Through a multidisciplinary practice encompassing installation, publication, printed image, video and sound, her work investigates the representation of individual and collective identities in public and urban spaces, with a particular focus on feminist and post-colonial discourses. Drawing from vernacular cultures, dancehall and nightlife imagery, she dissects performative gestures and the politics of the body, exploring how popular aesthetics shape empowerment and social belonging.
Her work has been presented in solo exhibitions at Palais de Tokyo and Galerie PACT, Paris, and in group shows in Europe and beyond, including the Saatchi Gallery in London, MCA Chicago, and Zilberman Gallery in Istanbul.
