For the first edition of its Biennale, De Renava chooses to draw inspiration from the motif of the wave as a metaphor for the constant movements that redefine collective identities and visions. The Rouge Odyssée exhibition questions the function of the home as a liminal space in perpetual mutation, the seat of all hopes and tensions. From the Mediterranean Sea where waves of thoughts, goods and people have continued to determine history, the exhibition explores the themes of exile, memory and transmission, inviting the observation of human trajectories.

The title refers to the Homeric epic, in which the first mythical exile from the Mediterranean past, Ulysses, stops at Bonifacio (Canto X). In this poem, the sea always has a purple color, never blue. This red is a symbolic vision which depicts the sea not only as a physical landscape source of desire and peril, but also as a metaphysical space where waves of thought merge and the mechanisms of identity construction crystallize. Adopting this theoretical framework, Rouge Odyssée evokes the experience of home as a place of intersubjective encounters, a territory to claim and an identity to reconstruct in a globalized and post-colonial framework.

Going through the mythological evocation of the home, then through its urban incarnation, the exhibition presents a network of works which offers multiple poetic escapes on the collective heritage and the universality of human vulnerability: this shared consciousness of making facing the same struggles, fragilities and determinisms in a world of hybridization where everything comes together to build one another.
