From 20 February to 31 August 2025 Maison Tavel (MAH) hosts the exhibition Home Is Where We Start From/La maison est là où tout commence. An exhibition highlighting the inherent singularities of the works of 26 women artists, shaped by their identity and culture, inherited from the first, second, and sometimes even the third generation of immigrants.
Home is where we start from is a contemporary art project that begins in the Canton of Geneva to celebrate the voices of women artists when they are confronted with intercultural priorities and the impact of migration. The project will delve into the memories of lost, abandoned, or reshaped identities, exploring notions of separation, displacement, survival, and rebirth, themes deeply rooted in the experiences of female immigrant artists as they find a new home. This newfound home becomes the space where creativity can once again express itself.
