"If mud possessed its own memory, what would it deem worthy of remembering?"

Artist Ali Cherri, who is currently exhibiting at the Institut Giacometti, imagines a performance entitled "The Book of Mud" as a dive into the past and the way it manifests itself, like mud: eroding, taking shape, reforming, evolving through upheaval and destruction.

In this performance, Ali Cherri invites two storytellers, one in Arabic, the other in French, and a musician to share the stories of the earth.
