As the first exhibition of the year, “She, Who Dwells in the Shadows” unfolded over the past weeks, offering deep insights into suppressed memories, oral histories, and alternative forms of knowledge.
The group exhibition conceived by guest curator Kinnari Saraiya approached darkness not as something to illuminate, but as a space for experience, complexity, and transformation. ✨
“We know that in the present moment, darkness is not just metaphorical. (...) This condition is part of the shadowed atmosphere in which this exhibition exists – not only as catastrophe, but as a space where stories continue to move, where memory survives, and where other futures can still be imagined”, as Kinnari Saraiya said in her opening speech.
As the exhibition comes to an end, we would like to warmly thank everyone who visited, engaged, and made this exhibition such a meaningful experience over the past months. With our new guided tour series “Through the lens of…”, we invited experts to open up the exhibitions from their own distinctive perspectives. To be continued. 👀
“She, Who Dwells in the Shadows”was seen from Fri, 13.03. – Sat, 09.05.2026 at Kunstraum Niederoesterreich.
