# Monira Al Qadiri: *The Archaeology of Beasts*

Sep 9 – Nov 8, 2026 · on view · Chapel

Sculptures, videos and a virtual-reality work drawing on ancient Egyptian gods and beliefs about animals, people and the afterlife.

Al Qadiri’s third show with the gallery, in the chapel of St. Agnes, brings to Berlin work first shown at Bozar in Brussels in 2024. Automaton pairs two slowly rotating black figures of the gods Khnum and Anubis, and in the video installation Book of the Dead, figures built from 3D scans of statues in Luxor recite spells from the Egyptian funerary text.

Aaru: After Lament, her first virtual-reality piece, places viewers in a golden wheat field, the Egyptian image of paradise, until a flood breaks in.
