achoo.collective

Achoo is an artists’ collective founded in Geneva in 2024 by Ren Ke, Chen Weiyu, and Li Chaolin. We take as our starting point that which emerges, veers off course, is passed on, and sometimes eludes us. Our practices take shape in the in-between: between one story and another, between here and elsewhere, between daily life and speculation.

We work with narratives, food, installations, and the forging of connections, at the intersection of art, cuisine, storytelling, and forms of kinship. Through exhibitions, workshops, site-specific interventions, meals, and other collective activities, we create spaces where stories, memories, and experiences can circulate, shift, and transform. Migration, memory, and identity emerge here less as themes to be represented than as experiences in motion, interwoven with languages, bodies, places, and relationships.
