EXPOSITION mirari
(mirari, from the Latin: “to be admired. x. e,” “to be contemplated. x. e”)
Through models and self-portraits rendered in a subtle, multicolored palette, Lyon-based queer artist Tessy Savary celebrates her community, herself, and her values. Driven by a desire to make fat, trans, and queer bodies visible, her paintings exude tenderness and extravagance and dare to challenge norms.
A tribute to the intertwined journeys that shape queer identities, this exhibition is also a heartfelt invitation to discover oneself, free from judgment, while reflecting the fluidity of self-perception. A vibrant celebration of one’s own self-construction, through its most intimate facets, surrounded by those who cherish, support, and inspire us.
exhibition from September 21 to November 20 at Le Phare, Rue Lissignol 3
opening reception: Monday, September 21, at 6:00 p.m., at Le Phare
