LIVING APART TOGETHER is a group exhibition at Kunsthalle Exnergasse by elephy, an artist collective and film production platform based in Brussels.

The show responds to elephy’s desire for community across localities, means of production and the temporalities of lived experience. It looks at women’s experiences and their socio-economic reality, class struggles, immigration, and community through lenses of intimacy and care.

For this, elephy puts films in dialogue with moving image works by artists working in Austria and expands this conversation to the film archives of our respective hometowns, ARGOS (BE) and sixpackfilm (AT).

elephy is an artist-run production platform for moving image based in Brussels, Belgium, founded by artists Rebecca Jane Arthur, Chloë Delanghe, Eva Giolo and Christina Stuhlberger in 2018.

They are an organisational structure for film production as well as a community committed to creating a space for individual and collective agency within a framework of convivial solidarity. As artists, they apply documentary strategies and personal narration to paint filmic portraits of people and places that create windows into the unseen; usually private, interior worlds.
