The Expositive art exhibition is returning for its second edition, once again giving a platform to artists living with HIV to share their stories through creativity. Organised by Fight Aids Monaco and the Kamil Art Gallery, and under the High Patronage of Princess Stéphanie, this year’s exhibition will feature the work of French artist Jordane Saget alongside pieces created by members of the association.
Following the success of its debut edition, Expositive 2 will centre around the theme ‘Les Lignes de l’Espoir‘ (The Lines of Hope). Saget, known for his distinctive intertwining lines, will guide participants through a series of creative workshops in March, allowing them to explore their own artistic expression within his signature style. The results of this collaboration will be unveiled at a vernissage on 24th April at Kamil Art Gallery, before the exhibition opens to the public from 25th April to 12th May.
For Kamil, the founder of Kamil Art Gallery, this second edition marks an important step in deepening the connection between art and personal expression. “We believe art has the power to transform lives and create meaningful dialogue. ‘Les Lignes de l’Espoir’ is about resilience, strength, and the unbreakable spirit of those who face daily challenges. We are honoured to continue this journey with Fight Aids Monaco and Jordane Saget,” he said in a statement.
Jordane Saget, who will be working closely with the participating artists, sees his distinctive linear art as an open structure, inviting personal stories to take shape within it. “My lines cross, intertwine, and respond to one another, but their true power comes from the stories that inhabit them,” he explained. “Through this project, I want to offer a framework that the participants can integrate into and transform in their own way. More than just an exhibition, this is about creating together, about sharing emotions and experiences through art.”
Princess Stéphanie, president of Fight Aids Monaco, has also spoken about the exhibition’s role in fostering understanding and breaking down barriers. “Living with HIV is a daily challenge, but it is also a lesson in courage, resilience, and dignity. These artworks are not just to be admired; they invite us to feel, to understand, to see differently,” she said ahead of the event.
With its blend of artistic talent and powerful storytelling, Expositive 2 is set to be a moving and thought-provoking event. More than just an exhibition, it is an invitation to look beyond the canvas and into the lives of those who use art as a voice, a release, and a symbol of hope.
