Meriem Bennani Exhibition “For My Best Family”

Fondazione Prada – Milan

From October 31, 2024, to February 26, 2025

“For My Best Family” is an exhibition by Meriem Bennani that combines an installation and a film.

The installation “Sole Crushing” features 192 slippers moving with a mechanism, creating a sound effect that feels like a protest or a ritual. This represents how people can be together, mixing moments of community and intimacy.

On the first floor, there is the film “For Aicha”, which tells the story of Bouchra, a Moroccan filmmaker in New York, and her relationship with her mother, Aicha. The film mixes documentary and 3D animation, exploring themes like love, pain, and identity through a mother and daughter. The story reflects on the difficulty of understanding each other, questioning what it means to be together.
