Invited as the second guest of the Fondation Thalie\u2019s summer programme in Arles, Sara Ouhaddou<\/strong> (born in \u000e1986 in Draguignan) is a Franco-Moroccan artist who lives and works between Paris and Marrakech.\u00a0This solo exhibition brings together a selection of recent works, some of which are shown for the first time, and bear witness to a protean artistic practice inspired by traditional crafts and cultures.<\/p>\n For almost a decade, Sara Ouhaddou has been working with mainly Moroccan communities to produce works that reinterpret ancestral techniques in glass, ceramics, weaving, and embroidery. From the Atlas Mountains to the villages\u00a0of the Rif, from the medinas of Fez to Marrakech, the artist draws on the collective intelligence of local and rural communities\u00a0to define protocols that deconstruct motifs and innovate by imagining new tools.\u00a0Each workshop is a social, political, economic,\u00a0and geographical study. Every one of her pieces is a learning experience, an exchange of knowledge and stories, both intimate and universal.<\/p>\n The title of the exhibition, \u201cTake a Seat, Have Some Tea\u201d [in Arabic: Gaalsi, T\u2019charbi kass d\u2019atay], is an invitation to meet the communities that Sara Ouhaddou collaborates with.\u00a0A series of photographs captured in Morocco, Tunisia, and Japan are presented here for the first time. These images of workshops, contexts, atmospheres, colours, and textures that were taken over the years are the starting point for the development of\u00a0her works in glass, ceramics, and textiles which are presented\u00a0in the exhibition.<\/p>\n Between photography and sculptural works, a certain long-form poetry becomes clear; a way of seeing the world against the injunctions of globalisation, thanks to an ecology\u00a0of reuse that the artist includes within a resolutely contemporary plastic approach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n A graduate of the E\u0301cole Olivier De Serres Paris, Sara Ouhaddou\u2019s work has been the subject of several international exhibitions including Hirafen, Ateliers C3T, Tunisie (2023), Moroccan Trilogy, Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid (2021) ; Global resistance, Centre Pompidou, Paris (2020) ; Manifesta Biennale, Marseille (2020) ; Our World is burning, Palais de Tokyo, Paris (2020), Marrakech Biennale, Maroc, (2016). In 2024, she took part in the Gherdeina Biennial and presented a solo exhibition at the MACAAL Museum of Contemporary Art in Marrakech and at the ifa-Galerie Berlin. She has also participated in programmes and residencies including Villa Albertine (2023), IASPIS Stockholm (2021\/2022), Art Explora x La Cite\u0301 Internationale des Arts (2021) and La Cite\u0301 Internationale des Arts x Daniel et Nina Carasso (2020\/2021).<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Curators: Nathalie Guiot<\/strong> and Ludovic Delalande<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Practical information<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Opening Saturday 29 June, 2024, from 4pm to 8pm. *reduced rate for students, under 26, pass les Rencontres d’Artes, carte Culture\/ ** ICOM card holders, jobseekers, Adagp members, Maison d’Artiste, journalists, inclusion mobility card (CMI), children under 12 years old<\/p>\n Free admission during Festival Agir pour le Vivant (from August 26 to September 1, 2024) upon presentation of the pass.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Invited as the second guest of the Fondation Thalie\u2019s summer programme in Arles, Sara Ouhaddou (born in \u000e1986 in Draguignan) is a Franco-Moroccan artist who lives and works between Paris and Marrakech.\u00a0This solo exhibition brings together a selection of recent works, some of which are shown for the first time, and bear witness to a […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24433,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[268],"tags":[],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24429"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24429"}],"version-history":[{"count":40,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24429\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24924,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24429\/revisions\/24924"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.fondationthalie.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
