Sorry Sun

First Edition of Fondation Pernod Ricard’s Nouveau Programme
With Saodat Ismailova, Alexandre Khondji and Hélène Yamba-Guimbi
Curator: Liberty Adrien
Opening on Septembre 15 at 6PM
"Drawing on fragmented narration, layered stories, and shifting temporalities, the practices of Saodat Ismailova, Alexandre Khondji, and Hélène Yamba-Guimbi trace a cartography of disruption. Spanning moving image, installation, and sculpture, their works allude to the fault lines of our time—the erosion of collective ideals, disillusionment with technological promises, and the urgency of the ecological crisis—while popular beliefs, stories, and rituals resurface as fragments of memory and subtle forms of resistance. Suspended between clarity and ambiguity, the familiar and the intangible, their gestures seem to inhabit an intermediate space. The exhibition "Sorry Sun" unfolds on this very threshold, its title evoking an ambivalent light: at once tender and scorching, revealing and disorienting, vivid and weary.." Liberty Adrien
