Al Farisa

Grantees
Aysha E Arar
Cultuurcentrum Strombeek in Brussels, Brussels, Belgium
October 31, 2025–February 1, 2026
Exhibition Grant

For her solo exhibition at Cultuurcentrum Strombeek, Aysha E Arar translates one of her recent paintings, titled Al Farisa, into a musical composition which she performs live in the exhibition space. The new song weaves the artist’s voice with field recordings made in nature, and is performed by a group of local female musicians. Additionally, five monumental paintings and a set of small drawings are on view. Experienced together, the visual and sonic components of the show amount to a subtle, yet powerful, message about contemporary political realities. 

Aysha E Arar, It was just a cup of coffee, spray paint on fabric, 2018.
