Opening Thursday, Sept 2, 5–9pm

Kevin Space is pleased to present I wear my wounds on my tongue, a newly conceived installation by poet and artist Tarek Lakhrissi, interweaving the artist’s main interests in peculiar sculpture, poetics of language and the creation of counter-spaces.

The installation will host collective readings led by Lakhrissi’s desire to test out alternative educational spaces and engage in transformative narratives.
