Julianknxx's 'In Search of Incredible' at LUMA Arles

Julianknxx, an artist originally from Sierra Leone and currently based in London, will showcase 'In Search of Incredible' at LUMA Arles from May 1, 2026, to January 10, 2027. This exhibition fuses film, sound, and sculpture to create an immersive experience that delves into migration, identity, and cultural memory through a non-linear, associative approach. Salt is a key metaphor, symbolizing preservation, labor, trade, and migration. Featured works include 'What Colours Can We Dream in This Night Filled with Salt,' created in Marseille with the Boras Choir's Comorian lullabies, and 'ɔl bɔdi na sta,' a collaboration with Karel Kouelany and Joël Assebako, reimagined within a broader installation. Julianknxx’s work highlights process, encounter, and multiplicity, encouraging viewers to explore the exhibition at their own pace. LUMA Arles, recognized for its support of interdisciplinary and experimental initiatives, serves as the institutional backdrop for this significant project.
