Setup by GHAITH & JAD

Mère, il est temps que tu saches is an intimate visual dialogue where Charbel Saadé comes out to his mother through photography. Using black-and-white and color images drawn from his everyday life, he explores memory, identity, and unspoken truths. Each frame becomes a way to express what words could not.

Designed in collaboration with GHAITH & JAD, the exhibition unfolds like a conversation—hesitant, raw, and revealing. At its end, a large abstract print of decaying flowers stands alone in a separate room, inviting viewers to reconsider perspective. Nothing is fixed—love, acceptance, truth—everything depends on how we choose to see.
