Afterwards, visual artist Sarabeth Triviño and exhibition curator María Andreína Escalona de Abreu invite you to crochet and weave connections as part of the exhibition red red réseaux. By demonstrating the crochet and fishing net-making techniques used to create the textile installation that occupies the gallery, they invite you to contribute and become part of this network of sisterhood and mutual aid. The public will be able to learn and practice the techniques by growing the net or creating their own web to take home.

The activity is open to the general public; however, we give priority to participants who identify as Latinx women. The workshop is adapted to French-, Spanish-, and English-speaking participants. Materials will be provided.

red red réseaux – September 25 to November 2, 2025

red red réseaux is an exhibition by and for people at the intersection of art and activism, immigrants, and female bodies in public spaces. The exhibition is designed to be a physical and conceptual labyrinth that embodies the issues surrounding these positions and invites the public to explore them further. This installation materializes a sharing network that has existed for several years among women artists from the Latin American diaspora living in Montreal. They call themselves Brujas. red red réseaux therefore offers a performative platform where las Brujas can intervene and activate the gallery space through gestures, actions, and material traces. The labyrinth occupies the entire gallery, connecting all the spaces with a common thread in the form of a net or spider’s web that will be constructed in situ. A clever play on words, the title of the exhibition is trilingual: red means both network in Spanish and red in English, revealing the subject and installation of the exhibition.
