La Sagesse des lianes @ Parco Arte Vivente, Turin, Italie : Binta Diaw
On the occasion of Artissima Parco Arte Vivente presents “La Sagesse des lianes” (The Wisdom of Lianas), a solo exhibition by artist Binta Diaw, curated by Marco Scotini. Following solo exhibitions by Navjot Altaf, Arahmaiani, and Regina José Galindo, Diaw’s project marks a new and important chapter in PAV’s ongoing investigation into the connections between nature, the female body, and decolonial thought.
The title of the exhibition draws inspiration from the liana, a climbing plant known for its ability to adapt and endure, symbolizing vital alliances and collective resilience. Through environmental installations, organic materials, and historical references, the artist explores themes of Afro- diasporic memory, ecological survival, and female resistance.
