Before it dissapears
R.A.R.O ON-SITE PROJECTS
“The growing discontinuity, the atomization of time, destroys the experience of continuity. The world is left without time (unzeitig).”
Within a In an accelerated, precarious, and often dislocated present, the impulse to “retain” can seem like a gesture of control: to fix what flees, secure what unravels, immobilize what changes.
However, the exhibition is based on another intuition: retaining can also be a form of care. This is to welcome without codifying, in contrast to the capture machine that Deleuze and Guattari speak of—a system that appropriates flows (of desire, of affects, of information, and of labor power) to make them useful in an extractive system.
Thus, against this logic, narratives unfold as a practice of attention toward that which crosses and shapes us: a root, a bond, an emotion, a texture, an image; before it fades or mutes.
Here, memory is not understood as a closed archive or a display case that preserves the past intact, but as a living process: a time that is actualized and rewritten each time we invoke it.
To remember is to renegotiate with loss; to sustain a presence that is no longer whole, but which also does not disappear entirely. This tension between permanence and transformation, between presence and absence, between the impulse to preserve and the need to let go, is the driving force behind the collected works. They could be diverse responses to the same unknown, attempts at resistance in the face of the wear of time. At the same time, this gesture, which often tears itself apart as it materializes and is then mended, becomes a form of knowledge, a practice that recognizes the power of the lived experience.
If the present is a site of destabilization of presence, this exhibition proposes another way to inhabit it: by holding onto traces, activating relationships, embracing metamorphosis. Retaining the ephemeral, after all, is an attempt to keep what happens within us, between us, and in the matter of the world from being erased without leaving any possibility of future.

SUDDENLY. The irruption is not always an explosion
The irruption is not always an explosion: sometimes it is a trembling whisper, an image that barely emerges, a question that resists being answered. The sudden does not arrive with noise, but with an unsettling delicacy: like the echo of a body trying to say what has no shape, like matter murmuring something we have yet to name.
This encounter traces a map of gestures and voices that do not seek definitive answers. It does not seek certainties, but other ways of sustaining and inhabiting uncertainty, of preserving what fades. It brings together sensibilities that give form to the invisible, that brush against the ungraspable, that activate relationships rather than meanings. Here, the image does not represent: it vibrates, approaches, trembles. And art ceases to be discourse to become heartbeat, breath, touch.Sudden, yes. But also intimate, fragile, necessary.

We Stay With the Trouble. Nine assemblages with invisible natures
This exhibition responds to Donna Haraway’s call to “stay with the trouble”, exploring how to live within damaged ecological, technological, and social worlds. Instead of seeking a lost purity, nine emerging artists propose practices of care, imagination, and coexistence through assemblages of “invisible natures”: dust, oysters, wounds, foliage, sea glass, electromagnetic frequencies, cables, textiles, and fragments of the self.
By amplifying what usually remains unnoticed, the works shift perception from merely looking to truly seeing, cultivating an ethics of relation and interdependence. Together, they form an ecology of practices that embraces fragility, resilience, and speculative futures.
This exhibition is therefore a manifesto: to stay with the trouble, to live with ruins, and to inhabit fragility differently—with attentiveness, resonance, and care. It reminds us that change begins not only with policy or technology, but with perception itself: how we see, what we choose to see, and the care we extend to what is revealed.
