The dialogue between Chantal Akerman and Sonia Wieder-Atherton brings image and music together in a shared time of listening. In their shared practice, image does not illustrate music, nor does music underscore image: both withdraw from subordination, establishing a relation founded on asymmetry and trust. It is a model of collaboration in which difference is not an obstacle but a condition of resonance.

The work of Chantal Akerman and Sonia Wieder-Atherton is made of such silent words, of chords without emphasis, of gestures that persist even when all else is still. Sonia’s music did not accompany Chantal’s images; it inhabited them, like a breath held. Every note was a thread of absence—drawn from time, from exile, from nostalgia—woven between an abandoned room and a passing train.

Nicola Erni views fashion photography through a lens quite different from that of art directors, journalists, or boutique clientele. An image that once appeared on the glossy page of a magazine—destined for only fleeting attention before fading into obscurity—now re-emerges, or perhaps more accurately, is reborn, elevated to a new and more enduring status.

This isn’t just about material play. It’s about ontology. By wrapping these tools, Durel removes them from their function and lets them exist in another register — tactile, erotic, uncertain. Sculpture, here, becomes a site where control and care, violence and tenderness, meet.
