Which events, which figures are part of the collective narrative and how could we artistically express the latter today? Among other concepts, Jems Koko Bi questions the remembrance, both individual and collective, as well as the ways to pay tribute to it. The exhibition alludes to recent history events, from the passing of Coupé-décalé national icon DJ Arafat to the Grand-Bassam attacks.

Jems Koko Bi, who lives between Abidjan and Essen, has a view that is both distanced and deeply involved on the contemporary history of his birth country, creating in the exhibition a symbolic and visual patrimony.
