What do we take from places, and how do we honour that exchange? The Foragers explores these questions through foraging: noticing, gathering, and working with what is already around us. What once was a basic survival skill now offers a way to slow down and pay attention in a time of ecological pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 24 April – 29 May, the exhibition at Pilar<\/strong> brings together artists who start from what they find in their surroundings: from washed ashore textiles to gaming symbols and insect traces. These starting points lead to sculptures, textiles, videos, drawings and sound works that reflect the contexts they come from and the questions they raise. Some focus on small details from daily life; others connect their materials to wider environmental or social issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Curated by Gosie Vervloessem, the exhibition features existing and new work by Anima O. Cassamajor, Annelotte Lammertse, A\u00efcha Ouattara, Amber Vanluffelen, Camille Dufour, Chlo\u00e9 Schuiten & Cl\u00e9ment Thiry, Delphine Somers, Elli Vassalou, Ernst Mar\u00e9chal, Federico Protto, Jori Galama, Maliza Kiasuwa, Marjolijn Dijkman, Mathias Mu, Nele M\u00f6ller, Pedro Riofrio, Samah Hijawi, Souka\u00efna Aziz El Idrissi and Tim Theo Deceuninck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Join curator Gosie Vervloessem and the participating artists for a first gathering around the exhibition.\u00a0Opening: April 23<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
