Body Archive – Extended Threads

Understanding the body archive as a repertoire of experiences, memories, and relationships, containing both individual and collective histories the exhibition combined text fragments, images and physical objects. A space is created that invites visitors to explore the interactions between inside and outside, the individual and society. How does personal experience shape our social reality? What patterns and histories are inscribed within us?
Body Archive — Extended Threads offered diverse channels of reflexion and dialogue with and towards our body especially in times of social fragmentation.
