Our latest exhibition, 'Raising our roots', is the museum's first participatory project, created by the Echoes collective – 13 young adults from around Brussels.
The exhibition explores representation in history through untold stories from the city. It contrasts the European history shown in the museum with intimate realities and migration narratives across time.
The members of the Echoes collective – selected through a call for application – identified unheard voices and missing narratives in history, and developed a particular interest in changing the way migration histories are told.
Presented in an audio-visual setting, the exhibition recreates the atmosphere of the city – bringing its metro, parks, streets, and homes alive. You will experience the in-betweenness of the ever-changing city.
Come discover these untold stories from Brussels and immerse yourself in the city’s atmosphere 👇
