Piquer au cœur – Carolina Sepulveda

In this exhibition, Carolina Sepulveda, a Chilean artist and poet living in Lille, sees embroidery as an act of reparation and a return to her origins.

Inspired by the women in her family, she forges intimate links with her roots. Each thread she handles is an affirmation of the power of women and of healing through art.

To mark the opening of the exhibition, members of the Franco-Chilean association Cordillera will be performing a repertoire of Latin American music, from Mexico to Cape Horn, via the Caribbean islands, Colombia, Cuba and Peru (6.30-7pm).

The Cordillera music group is the artistic showcase of the eponymous association, which promotes the cultural richness of the Latin American continent and aims to share with as many people as possible a message of peace, solidarity and respect for human dignity.
