What remains when everything is in motion? In the group exhibition Shifting Matters, Vanessa Billy (*1978), Maya Bringolf (*1969), Jannik Giger (*1985), and Zimoun (*1977) explore the question of how we relate to different materials, environments, and to one another in today’s world. Their works invite viewers to experience change and movement as ongoing processes that connect past and present.

The four artists each set distinct emphases: Bringolf works with assemblages made from found and recycled materials; Billy examines the connection between body and earth; Zimoun translates movement and rhythm into acoustic resonance; and Giger explores transformation through sound, gesture, and image.

Together, their works create a multilayered interplay of forms, sounds, and perceptions, in which instability, renewal, and the potential of continuous change become tangible.

Curated by Patrizia Keller (Director, Kunstraum Baden) and Chantal Molleur (Co-founder and Chief Curator, White Frame).
