Exiles - artists' views
The experience of being uprooted is revealed in the representation of the daily lives of exiles. Nil Yalter's contemporary installation evokes the lives of Turkish families working illegally in Paris. Between marginalisation and the preservation of their culture, the work documents the uprooting of an entire community.
Nil Yalter's artwork C’est un dur métier que l’exil, Si je pouvais te poser sur ma paume, Les Fenêtres de quarante maisons, is exhibited at the Louvre-Lens during the exhibition "Exiles - artists' views" from September 25th, 2024 to January 20th, 2025.
