Sneaked into the graduation exhibition “Revolt Against the Sun!” at Kunsthaus Baselland, the show exists as a “Show within the show” (a term the exhibition text itself questions), appropriating the exhibition’s title for its own project.

Produced on the occasion of Ilja Zaharov’s graduation from the Master of Fine Arts program at HGK Basel FHNW, he invited Sanna Helena Berger, Francesca Brugola, Wisrah C. V. da R.
