26th Section 🎚️

Through mixed media installations and moving image works, HJP explores how systems of power, moral codes, and discipleship shape the environments we cohabit. His practice pushes the boundaries between physical and social realms, articulating spatial frameworks through which tensions across historical and cultural narratives collide to reframe how happenings are seen, felt, and understood.

In this episode of AIR, we step into the world of Henrique J. Paris @vweto , an Angolan artist and research practitioner whose work sits at the intersection of discourse, architecture, and contemporary art.

❤️‍🔥 Delighted to share ‘Peripheral Witnessing’ recent scenographic installation commissioned for moving image exhibition Sacred Architectures, curated by @cindysissokho The work extends from my research into spatial arrangements, memory, and the politics of witnessing.

Our current exhibition “Sacred” Architectures curated by Cindy Sissokho @cindysissokho is open until November 8th. Artists: Hoda Afshar (Iran) @hodaafshar , Ufuoma Essi (UK) @ufuoma.essi , Anthony Jamari Thomas (USA) @anthonyjamarithomas Sacred Architectures is a moving-image exhibition that draws on the interconnections between histories of resistance, spirituality, and the politics of movements. Featuring works by Hoda Afshar, Anthony Jamari Thomas, and Ufuoma Essi, the exhibition reflects on how sacred practices - whether religious, ancestral, or vernacular - become a part of the architectures that shape our lives.  Spirituality appears in many forms: invisible and hyper-visible, physical and immaterial, sonic and embodied that guide, transform and sustain us offering ways of care, resilience, collective cultural memory, and hope.  The exhibition unfolds as a convivial screening space. It also features a new installation, Peripheral Witnessing, by Henrique J. Paris. @vweto SACRED ARCHITECTURES Curated by Cindy Sissokho 🗓16 September – 08 November Wednesday to Saturday , 3 - 7pm Support by @dg.artes Structure financed by the Portuguese Republic - Culture / Directorate-General for the Arts Images by Ana Garrido
