Pop-up exhibition Powder

Pow(d)er

Pow(d)er is a pop-up exhibition and performance project taking place in a traditional Swiss cheese dairy chalet in Gstaad. Through works by Pavel Aguilar, Nicolas Christol, and Lucia Moure, the project explores how sweetness and violence, seduction and control have been historically intertwined within colonial systems of extraction and power – from cocoa to gunpowder to cocaine.
