Electric Green Parakeets (a Celebration of Migration) brings together eight artists who were born elsewhere but have made Brussels their home. Their voices have become part of this city’s evolving landscape, slowly shaped by the influence of Belgian art history and sharpened through sustained engagement with the contemporary ecosystem of residencies, institutions, academies, galleries, and civic life. They are not just “from” somewhere else – they are also shaping where we are now, and what will become of it. These artists are brought together here, not as part of a researched or thematic exhibition, but as a celebration of migration and the city we’ve all come to share. Though their practices unfold in diverse forms, they converge in a quiet reckoning with home, its fragility and resilience, its hauntings and layered histories.

Part of the exhibition is Barefoot Birthdays on Unbreakable Glass (2024) by artistic researcher Rebecca Jane Arthur,created as part of the research project Homeward Bound.
