SOLO SHOW – GALERIE DATA – June 12 to 19, 2025
Blue giants blaze, and emotions resonate through space.
Burning Blue reinvents this trace, this cosmic imprint of a lost passage. It rewrites a secretly luminous link with the world — the fleeting moment rediscovered there, the vanished emotion vibrating forever, the ephemeral sensation inscribed in the stars.
With Burning Blue, Vidya-Kelie creates a freeze-frame, a lasting capture revealing, through these connections with the cosmos, another reality — elsewhere, singular: a reality that belongs to each of us, and yet where everyone can find themselves.
CONNEXIONS – in Corsica – June 21–22, 2025
Performance by David Duez, featuring a chapter from my book Connexions, translated into Corsican and interpreted in polyphonic song.
Planned release in 2025 in the “Manifesto” category by MBE Editions and Éditions L (David Guez).

SUNREAL, connected sun serie is on PARIS PHOTO / BIT20 / RESEAU LUX
6 october – 8 Decembrer 2024
33 rue Rodier, 75009 PARIS
Sunreal is a photography series in which I introduce luminous presences that seem connected to other points on Earth.
This series, in line with the #sun project, aims to establish markers in space through digital means.
Like a cartel, the light I discovered in the Amazon, thanks to the project by solimanlopez with linacastanedas, resonated powerfully with all the sources of light I had encountered until then. As if this was the one feeding all the others…
Thank you to everyone who has accompanied me to this point.
La Biennale de l’image Tangible is exhibiting : Vidya-Kelie, Philippe Calandre, Francois Ronsiaux, Jean-Baptiste Perrot, Dominique Clerc, Nadia Rabhi and Vitoria Arhens.

>>Talk with Dominique Moulon, le 27.02, 19h
Inspired by the Nepalese concept of “KE GARNE”, the transmedia artist evokes with poetic delicacy the splendour of tropism and the physical forces that weave social and atomic entanglement. She shares her reflections with art critic and digital curator Dominique Moulon, exploring their translation into the virtual universe.

The myriad of sunbeams #SUNPATH
is at META HAUS [ IN ] MATERIAL, from October 20th to 26th, 2023
#SUNPATH
The artwork SUN is composed of sunbeams, a vibrant tribute to this collective energy. As the pinnacle of the collection, these pieces, like jewelry, highlight individual connections. These suns represent formidable forces, a collective convergence of individuals meditating on the sun simultaneously.
They embody a remarkable power: individuals directing their thoughts towards positive aspects at the same time. Sustaining this collective weave is imperative. In this new interpretation, the Sunpath series in gold magnificently showcases the power of this connection.

NFT – SENT by Vidya-Kélie
Sent.vidyakelie.com is an interactive digital website in which the user is invited to send a message and click on SEND. The work makes visible a path of information through a space with no other recipient than the one who writes himself, a self-contemplation of his own sending and on the traces usually left on the web like the debris of satellites around the earth. In a space that is not stored anywhere (see code on the site) here, Vidya-Kélie proposes a playground to practice, to make mistakes, to step back without the possibility of being judged, traced or analysed.

Hello everyone,
the exhibition at Symbiont Space has been extended this summer until August 14th!
So these are the last days to visit my work HOPE MOTION, this story of permanent movement that animates the world and turns into a magnetic Tango!
A lesson in humility generated by hundreds of people around the world who cry out for energy independence and who unknowingly participate in the frenetic dance of two magnets moving in their magnetic fields.
In order to enhance the exhibition with related exchanges, here we will discuss over a cocktail the notions of “Institutional VS Free science”.
At the closing, this Sunday, August 14, 2022, 21h, will be led by Roland Fischer this traditional ritual of Cocktail + Guest.
I hope you will be there!
Wishing you a nice summer,
See you soon!
<3

| Opening, 11th June, 5 pm Symposium, 15th June, 10am with Vidya-Kélie, Joana Moll, Shusha Niederberger and Selena Savic |
During Art Basel, symbiont shows two works on the nature of technology or techniques of the natural. Joana Moll’s work “Inanimate Species” reflects on the resource consumption of digital hardware and places the rapid development in the chip market in a critical relationship to the decline of biodiversity. Aesthetically, the installation is oriented towards insect collections in the cabinets of natural history museums. In “Hope Motion” Vidya Kelie lets the forces of attraction between two magnets perform a suggestive dance. What secret rules do the elegant movements follow – are there really only physics and chance at work?
hosted by Géraldine Honauer and Roland Fischer
Symbiont Space, Riehenstrasse 6, 4058 Basel | 13-19.6 June open from 9 to 12 am and 9- 12 pm, Coffee in the morning, cocktails in the evening, with invited guests!
| Opening, 13th June, 7 pm Symposium, 15th June, 7 pm, Participation only by registration HERE |
Chain is a conceptual dialogue between Géraldine Honauer‘s work and the contributions by Vidya Kelie, Oliver Fuhrer and Johannes Gees, which she has brought together. The symposium provides a framework in which Honauer can enter the world of non-fungible tokens (NFT). In this context, Johannes Gees will install an NFT by the artist with the participants. Beforehand, Oliver Fuhrer will open his cloud models and measurement systems to the participants, contrasting physical spaces with coded ones. Furthermore, Vidya Kelie spans a luminous and energetic arc between two exhibition spaces with an interactive installation.
Büro International, Drahtzugstrasse 67, 4057 Basel / Daily open, 2 – 7 pm
