Mizo's exhibition plunges viewers into a profound reflection on our times, its heritage and its prospects, with a particular focus on Algeria. In three acts, these portraits highlight the profound consequences of three major periods in the country's history (1830, 1962, 1992). The artist explores the complexities of Algeria's tumultuous history through a series of captivating monochrome portraits, each image telling a unique story and revealing personal, collective or universal meanings.
Mizo creates an immersive experience, a unique opportunity to explore visual narratives that invite us to rethink our relationship with the history, heritage and perspectives that shape Algeria and our world. Using photography as a universal visual language, Mizo transcends language barriers to immerse us in his committed artistic approach, revealing the power of art to raise collective awareness and essential dialogues about Algeria and beyond.
