Magischer Realismus gegen die Härte der Vorstadt
French-Chilean artist Tohé Commaret presents an exhibition at MMK Zollamt in Frankfurt featuring quiet, still images that highlight invisible care work and feminist solidarity. The show focuses on women who silently enable events like weddings and galas without being seen, exploring female alliances and the attempt to reclaim new narratives from the suburbs.
This exhibition matters because it brings attention to overlooked labor and marginalized perspectives within the art world, using magical realism to challenge the harshness of suburban life. By centering unseen female figures and their collective experiences, Commaret contributes to ongoing conversations about gender, visibility, and social structures in contemporary art.
