Door to the Cosmos
Slash Paris

Guillaume Benoit, Slash Paris, October 22, 2025

"The show navigates a complex interplay of cosmic imagination, historical trauma, and symbolic narratives. Nick Cave’s cyclone sculpture merges climate data with brain scans to explore vulnerability and resilience, while Michi Meko overlays celestial and cartographic motifs to reflect tension and discord. Zohra Opoku reinterprets the Judgment of Osiris, blending textile delicacy with emotional intensity, and George Clinton concludes the exhibition with vibrant, playful self-portraits that unify the show’s themes. Across four distinct voices, the exhibition fuses life, death, dream, and creation, presenting a dynamic cosmos where emotion and imagination confront reality in all its complexity."
