Collective exhibition by s t r a y stars artists in residence.
Villa of the Institute for the Integration of Political Victims
Tirana Art Weekend, 27 November - 7 December 2025
Featuring artists: Samela Balazi, Renid Tosuni, Jozefina Vokrri, Xhulian Millaj, Erald Nezaj,
Elsaida Musiq, Erjon Baculi, Pediona Dautaj, Elsamina Musiq and Nora Bzheta.
Following Edition I, the exhibition returns to the house as both site and method, extending
outward into the surrounding landscape of the lake, fields, abandoned train tracks, and bunkers.
Within the space, kafe turke is served and the inherited sofas are rearranged to recreate a shared
living room drawn from the residency, forming an informal domestic setting within the institution.
Coming together becomes the work itself, shaped through shared time, conversation, and presence.
Works include objects from the residency house, a found television, photographs printed on tracing
paper, and video, continuing the residency through reactivated materials and site-specific traces.
