Une Chambre 脿 Soi

14 Sep, 2024 - 12 Jan, 2025

Ch芒teau La Coste is pleased to present 鈥楿ne Chambre 脿 Soi鈥, a group exhibition curated by Margaux Plessy bringing together over fifteen emerging international artists in dialogue with leading female figures in art history to tell the story of one night, from sunset to sunrise. Displayed in the Richard Rogers Drawing Gallery, visitors will be immersed in an intimate bedroom setting, guided by a rhythm of works that evoke the different phases of a fragmented, near-sleepless night.

An avid reader of literature and poetry, Plessy takes the title of the show from Virginia Woolf鈥檚 extended essay of the same name 鈥楢 Room of One鈥檚 Own鈥, which spoke to her of themes of intimacy, secrecy and the possibility of imagination. Also inspired by her own personal experiences of insomnia, she invited a group of emerging French and international artists to create new works that express their interpretations of dreams, nightmares and restlessness, and explore sleep, or a lack thereof, as an instigator of creativity. This tightrope walk is accompanied by a story made up entirely of words, extracts and ideas borrowed from some of the greatest authors of French literature, collected and arranged by Plessy.
