Cartographies of Presence at Albion Jeune brings Shirin Neshat and Sarah Brahim into dialogue through film, photography, performance, and poetry. Neshat’s seminal Passage (2001), set to Philip Glass’s score, evokes collective mourning and the ties between body, ritual, and landscape. Brahim debuts In Search of an Honest Map (2025) and There Will Come Soft Rains (2025), using choreographed presence within the Saudi desert to trace memory, resilience, and transformation. Together, the artists present the body as archive, altar, and site of resistance—bridging solitude and solidarity across generations and geographies.
