"ce qui nous hante" is Jonas Englert’s first solo exhibition at the gallery. The exhibition brings together works created between 2015 and 2025, in which Englert explores the political, aesthetic, and media-related dimensions of memory, the body, and the image. The exhibition’s title – ce qui nous hante (“what haunts us”) – draws on Jacques Derrida’s theory of hauntology, which conceives past and present as intertwined temporalities. For Derrida, the ghost is not a metaphor but a conceptual figure for understanding moments in which something seemingly absent continues to exert influence in the present – a trace, a remnant, an afterimage. Hauntology describes the persistent return of the past in the present: the reappearance of repressed images, gestures, and meanings that subtly shape our perception.
