Galerie Dominique Fiat is pleased to participate this October in the fair OFFSCREEN Paris at the Chapelle de la Salpêtrière with a solo show by the South African artist Sue Williamson.

An installation, accompanied by a series of hand-embroidered drawings, illustrates the events and consequences of the Anglo-Boer War of 1899–1902 through a delicate narrative.

The gigantic obelisk Towards Another World stands as a monument in honor of the victims: British soldiers, as well as the women and children who died in the South African concentration camps.

The embroidered drawings Stories for Children, displayed around the installation, create a visual narrative of war: men departing for the battlefield, villages destroyed, and the suffering caused by loss.

By revealing a little-known chapter of history, Sue Williamson confronts us with the profound consequences of war.
