DON'T BE HAPPY, WORRY - ecal students x Kenneth Goldsmith
Inspiré·e·s par un atelier intense et stimulant avec l'artiste américain Kenneth Goldsmith, les étudiant·e·s du Bachelor Arts Visuels ont valorisé des signes subtils du quotidien, transformant des pensées errantes en un tapis : non pas comme un dessin, mais comme un détour ; non pas comme une déclaration, mais comme une collection d'absurdités oubliées. Poète distingué par le MoMA, Kenneth Goldsmith s’inspire de son manifeste Uncreative Writing pour créer notamment livres, textes critiques, émissions et installations à partir de collages de matériaux trouvés.

Elles accueillent affiches, tracts et posters, échos de la culture contemporaine et des questionnements des étudiant·e·s d’aujourd’hui.

WORKSHOP Marie-Caroline Hominal / Pierrine Poget
The BAAV is inviting two leading figures to its semestrial workshops: Pierrine Poget, author and poet, and Marie-Caroline Hominal, dancer and performer, both from Geneva. The former, described by one student as an "osteopath of the brain", invites a group of students to make a family with the voices in their heads, while the latter invites bodies into the space of the party for a performance in the ECAL film studio.

Eulalie Félix – Il est parfois nécessaire de faire une scène.
by Eulalie Félix
My first is hollow and clangs softly when struck by a wandering step. My second is barely a word — just a pause, a breath between thoughts. My third hides in the dark, curled in warmth, five to a foot. My whole lies quiet beneath the earth, waiting to feed with no pride, only patience.

Emma Blanc-Germser – Noce de pigeon
by Emma Blanc-Germser
We're off to tell our own stories, piecing together the crap that surrounds us to make beautiful structures while gradating the shades of brown, beige, black, ochre, khaki, that it offers us. Because when the tears stop coming out, everything ends up coming out through the buttocks. And there's nothing left to do but to go in the quest of love.

Amina Loumachi – Pleaser Flamingo-808G 8 inches schlong
by Amina Loumachi
This performance play with themes of spaces. Through sexualities, the artist questions power dynamics, creating a link amongst the bioluminescence concept as a visibility strategy and queer activism. With heels dancing and a neon atmosphere, the project explores the way of inhabiting the space which could either be intimate or the public. The artist amplifies the echo of their heels, which draws the silence while lighting up the space with each clack. A dialogue is created with the public, still but here. A biocenosis takes place where a space-sound landscape exists creating a tangible discomfort. Bodies become a vector of memories, breathing as the performance goes. A shared heritage gets distributed but also reverses the positions of everyone.

Anna Cocimarov – De deux choses l'urne (qui rit), l'autre c'est le sommeil...
by Anna Cocimarov
Laughter on TV was recorded in the 1950s. Today, most of the people you hear laughing are dead.” This line from the novel Berceuse by Chuck Palahniuk feels like an urban legend — half true. It echoes Bruce Nauman’s Partial Truth, a cold, minimalist stele shaped like a dead TV screen. Television, too, builds partial truths: cutting, filtering, reframing reality. We watch the news like a sitcom, between forced laughter and banalized tragedy. This installation reflects this fractured perception: two urns — one laughs, the other sleeps. Vessels of memory, they embody both absurdity and numbness. Between laughter and sleep, death and spectacle, the boundary fades — like truth itself.
