Stimultania presents a traveling exhibition which combines different photographic sequences around the notions of refuge and habitation.
In the exhibition Melita, מלט−mlṭ, Refuge, Anne Immelé envisages the destiny of the Mediterranean by crossing the routes of commercial conquest of the Phoenicians with those of today's migrants. An exploration that crosses and alternates traces of the past and the vicissitudes of the present, opening spaces for reflection on the notions of refuge and hospitality. Rooted in the geopolitical complexity of the contemporary migratory condition, the photographs move away from reporting to offer a poetic trajectory, connecting the geographies of three countries: the caves and remains of Phoenician refuges in Malta, the quarries of Favignana in Sicily, the beaches of Tunisia where the dreams of refugees are sometimes buried.
