The Flows that Weave Us - Ghizlane Sahli
Oct 3rd – March 27, 2026

​

Visual artist Ghizlane Sahli, Morocco,  explores what circulates, connects, and nourishes. Her work begins with an act of transformation: collected plastic waste, reconfigured with the help of women artisans, becomes silk-embroidered cells called alveoli. Through their proliferation, these forms compose organic landscapes where the infinitesimal turns monumental, and discarded matter regains a pulse.

In this new series, she places the question of liquid at the heart of her research — the vital fluid that traverses and sustains life. The female body, crossed by blood, milk, amniotic fluid, and desire, resonates with the fluxes of nature: sap, water, vegetal energy. Blood and sap, milk and water emerge as the many faces of one and the same vital pulsation.

The works unfold like vibrant networks, where each alveolus, each cocoon, evokes both the cellular fragment and the cosmic landscape. They reveal a silent circulation that unites the feminine and the vegetal, the intimate and the universal, celebrating the invisible force of the fluxes that weave us together.
