BY LAILA TAWEEL, LINA KHALED, SAMA SHAHROURI, TAWFIQ DAWI, and ZEINA SALAMEH About the Exhibition BY LAILA TAWEEL, LINA KHALED, SAMA SHAHROURI, TAWFIQ DAWI, AND ZEINA SALAMEH About The Exhibition The realm of spatial existence carries possibilities of multiple conceptual realities. Of these, our select young artists each focused on a singular ecosystem to examine thoroughly. Separated by geography, personal values and mediums, the full body of presented work examines various realities of Space. The coming collection highlights various forms of art, from photography to sculpture and installation art. The young artists seem to be dwelling in thought over a brief encounter with a lifechanging event or the memories it rippled. Personal, Actual, Open, Safe and Mental spaces are studied in the coming works. On their own, each collection by the artists showcases a single conceptual reality, but together they formulate a whole greater than the sum of its part.
