Born into a Senegalese family in the northern districts of Marseille, Marie Gomis-Trezise established Galerie Number 8 in 2016.
The groundbreaking creative director, as France’s first Black A&R in a major record company, discovered her love for photography while shaping her artists’ sound and image. This discovery served as the foundation for her vision to bring visibility to a new wave of photographers from the African diaspora and the global South.
Galerie Number 8 has now run its course, and it is time for a new chapter. With a physical manifestation in the heart of Brussels, the gallery will be renamed Galerie Gomis, after its founder.
This change reflects Marie’s personal commitment and acknowledges that in the passage of time, human beings evolve. The choice of the color purple is a subtle allusion to the rain of the same name, symbolizing the hidden aspects of our identities.
It underscores the belief that our individuality transcends labels such as race, sexual orientation, or socio-economic background. What truly matters is embracing our differences, as they represent the most profound diaspora in the history of humanity.
