Siblings of the Soil
For International Women's Day, Melkweg Expo and Bar Bario jointly created Siblings of the Soil, an exhibition about ecofeminism. The climate crisis is far from apolitical; it is the result of political decisions made mainly by the West, at the expense of the South. With global crises in areas such as Gaza, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Sudan and their impact on our planet, it is increasingly important to put the experiences and voices of women of color - who are often overlooked - at the center of climate justice discussions .

Critical perspectives on issues affecting women
This exhibition presents work by Tiana Japp, Irina Naji, Maha Eljak, Dina El Zeneiny, Rah Naqvi and Nella Ngingo. These artists offer critical perspectives on the themes of patriarchy, ecofeminism and capitalism: ranging from the representation of femininity in Burundi to the chaos of conflict in Palestine. These pressing topics and perspectives are translated into various art forms, including painting, photography and beadwork.
