Sunniva Allanic

Vessel
Duo Show January 23 - February 1, 2026

Vessel is an exhibition that reflects on the complexity of sustaining another being’s life, and the malleable barrier between self and other.

Sunniva Allanic’s sculpture lies in the center of the space: a fleshy tunnel through which air and time flow. It remains unclear whether this creature—nearly, but not quite, a familiar shape—requires our care to maintain itself. Ultimately, the work questions our role as humans, asking us to consider the nature of our intervention in the lives of other beings.

On all the walls, Steffi Drerup’s photographic series “Mamma” collaborates with mothers to create portraits of breastfeeding. The act of nurturing another’s dependent body, and the blurred line of when that body should be left to thrive or fail on its own, are the driving forces of both artists’ works, transforming the gallery into a place where body becomes sustenance, air becomes breath, and audience becomes witness. 

Prévisions pour demain
Exposition du 28 septembre au 1er novembre 2025

Le fil conducteur de cette exposition est la notion de rupture : qu’elle soit amoureuse, existentielle ou physique. Après une séparation douloureuse qui a marqué la fin de mon adolescence, je me suis isolée plusieurs mois au bord de la mer avec pour seule compagnie des lapins sauvages. Ils sont devenus pour moi une présence réconfortante et silencieuse, un symbole fort d’espoir et de communauté.

How to Love When It's the End of the World
Master's solo exhibition February 14-19, 2025

The very things we perceive as threats often expose our deepest vulnerabilities. Our attempts at care can inadvertently cause harm. The boundaries between love and hate, desire and repulsion, prove disturbingly interconnected. These notions, along with fear, fragility, and responsibility, all came into play in my creative process throughout the year, leading up to my solo show, 'How to Love When It's the End of the World'.

Despite their varied materials and forms, the works are united by a shared exploration of inherent vulnerabilities and ambiguous relationships. The exhibition was not a declaration of despair, but rather an exploration of the moments where vulnerability and strength, connection and isolation, creation and destruction intertwine. It is in these spaces, these raw and unfinished moments, that we find the potential for both profound fragility and unexpected resilience. By embracing the porousness of our own boundaries, the strangeness within us and around us, we might just discover a way to navigate a world perpetually on the edge, finding beauty and meaning in the very act of teetering.
