‘When The Moon Waxes Red’ is an exhibition commissioned by Spazju Kreattiv that’s not to be missed.

It provides a unique opportunity to explore the work of female and queer artists from around the globe who are challenging the patriarchal and colonial legacies that have been prevalent in the past.

The exhibition is the ideal platform to bring forth a more equitable vision of the world, where all humans, non-humans, binary and non-binary subjects are given equal consideration.

This powerful exhibition consists of thirteen creative projects, all of which explore alternative approaches to living in harmony with the planet.

Such projects focus on restoring the spiritual, aesthetic and emotional connections between people and non-human entities, taking into account the political consequences and other similar relations.

The artists involved wish to promote forms of care and activism that confront existing standards and present novel outlooks on ecological morality.

Additionally, by exploring concepts such as hydrofeminism, tentacular thinking and ecofeminism, the showcase offers a chance to discover unheard voices, appreciate a local perception as well as consider alternative futures.

The Artistic Director of Spazju Kreattiv Daniel Azzopardi stated that with this project Spazju Kreattiv aims to remain at the forefront of creative expression by inviting foremost artists from all over the world to tackle subjects which are highly topical and relevant to contemporary society.

The curator of ‘When the Moon Waxes Red’ exhibition Maren Richter explains that “we undoubtedly live in times of substantial, probably irreversible crisis, in which the imbalance and collapse of nature is at the centre”.

“I wanted to propose an exhibition that reflects on the climate crisis by giving a voice specifically to the female perspective, dedicated to often unheard voices, and with the aim to also look at non-Western knowledge, narratives and stories”, she continued.

The exhibition will be open at Spazzju Kreattiv in Valletta till the 16th April. For more information click here.
