Section K-Off, a Tunisian video art collective, is hosting an exhibition titled 'Gabès en flux, images en friction' in Gabès, Tunisia. The event, scheduled for May 2026, focuses on the interplay between industrial activity and environmental degradation in the region.
The exhibition features works by local and international artists, using video to document and critique the impact of phosphate processing plants on Gabès's coastline and communities. According to the organizers, the title reflects the constant flow of industrial materials and the friction between economic development and ecological preservation.
Gabès has been a site of environmental activism in recent years, with protests against pollution from the Tunisian Chemical Group (GCT). The exhibition aims to give a platform to these voices through visual storytelling.
