COVERS: Art, Decolonisation and Care

Art as Care. Care as Resistance

Pierre Mertens has developed a body of work in which art, care and social reality remain inseparably connected. Working both in the studio and in public space, he focuses on the vulnerable individual within a world where there appears to be less and less space for them.

The works presented in the exhibition Covers at the SHARE Knowledge Centre in Moshi, Tanzania (2025–2026) are placed within the broader trajectory of his oeuvre.
