Nina Emge Explores Listening and Collective Making in Bremen Solo Show

In autumn 2026, Swiss artist Nina Emge, who was born in Zurich in 1995 and continues to reside there, will unveil her solo exhibition titled In der Wiederholung beginnen wir (In Repetition, We Begin) at Künstler:innenhaus Bremen. The exhibition highlights her sound pieces and sculptures, which emphasize diverse listening practices. Her artworks, whether displayed on walls or as standalone pieces, serve as containers for narratives, craftsmanship, materials, and flora—reflecting her research, archival efforts, installations, and collaborative methodologies. Emge views listening as a communal experience that unfolds among individuals, spaces, and contexts. By distinguishing between hearing and listening, she utilizes sound to enrich narratives and share knowledge. An exhibition booklet can be accessed at kh-bremen.de.
