chrysalis
Curated by Nadège Metzler
06/06/2026 – 30/08/2026
With chrysalis, the BPS22 inaugurates a new summer event dedicated to its collections. Each year, a selection of works will emerge from the shadows of the storage rooms into the light of the museum, offering a renewed and singular perspective on the collection. This initial chapter draws inspiration from the Latin word chrysalis, denoting the cocooning stage – a state of latency in which matter prepares itself to be reborn in another form. The exhibition seizes this fragile instant of metamorphosis, suspended between two shapes, two worlds, between what is no more and what is not yet – a moment in which reality holds its breath, when everything shifts without yet revealing itself.
The exhibition brings together installations, sculptures, paintings, photographs and videos that capture this moment when things appear to falter, when certainties fracture, when forms are still searching for themselves.
