Shows “Wings” It happens 8 December until the day 3 February
From 8 from December to 3 February 2017, the artist Catharina Suleiman performs shows "Wings", his first solo exhibition, in apArt Private Gallery. Curated by Thais Marin, the show brings more than 30 unpublished works of the artist, all carried out with mixed techniques, as photo, stencil, watercolor, embroidery, engraving, poetry and sculpture. All parts will be available for purchase during the show period, and, at the end, Some may be rented, along with other parts of the collection of the Gallery.
In the vision of the artist, the wings are the bridge between heaven and Earth, the release of the soul, the proximity to God. The wings feature a complex symbolism, appearing in several stories, popular legends and myths. Cupid, Angel of love, is more efficient with their wings. Icarus could be less reckless. Most of the stories, winged beings aren't born with wings, but the win through your actions, as in a rite of passage for body and soul.
The theme "Wings" has always been present in the work of Catharina Suleiman. "I can't define the moment or reason that led me to illustrate the first wings. I like to think, without wanting to sound pretentious, I also earned my wings. " The artist says he will never be able to confirm if the winged beings of his works are angels, beings of his own authorship or "creatures that transcend the human condition". But part of the fascination is related to his works part of freedom given to the Viewer to imagine and interpret each representation as what represents. Each work presents a series of signs, explicit or more discreet, which awakens the imagination of the viewer and features a full story, built in conjunction between Viewer and artist. The wings appear as a running thread of narrative.
"If the archetype of winged humans are God's and created in his image and likeness, I can only conclude that lift flight has always been a latent wish. Freedom always. ", comments Catharina.
