By the Mountain’s Shade: Artists Turn Paris into a Space of Memory and Resistance
Paris | Galerie Eric Mouchet, 45 Rue Jacob  — The heart of Paris’s art district is set to resonate with powerful voices from contemporary art as Galerie Eric Mouchet presents “Ham Sâya Kouh Hâ – By the Mountain’s Shade.” This compelling exhibition brings together the evocative works of Sher Ali, Fati Khademi, Latifa Ataii, Mohsin Tasha, and Kubra Khademi, artists whose practices are deeply rooted in memory, identity, and lived experience.

Opening to the public from 24 January to 7 March 2026, the exhibition explores themes of displacement, resilience, and cultural continuity through painting, performance, and visual storytelling. Each artist contributes a distinct narrative, yet their works collectively form a shared landscape—one shaped by history, struggle, and hope. The mountain, both literal and symbolic, emerges as a silent witness to human endurance.

Hosted at Galerie Eric Mouchet, Paris, By the Mountain’s Shade stands as more than an exhibition—it is a cultural statement. It invites audiences to engage with voices that refuse silence and to experience how contemporary art can transform personal histories into universal expressions of strength and dignity.
