Heidi Khan, Donna Huddleston, Becky Kolsrud, Naudlin Pierre, Matilda Rosier, Anthony Show. From this world

Exhibition February 7 − March 2, 2019
«From this world“- group international exhibition of women artists: Heidi Khan, Donna Huddleston, Becky Kolsrud, Naudlin Pierre, Matilda Rosier and Anthony Showering. The works in the exhibition show how each artist uses the ethereal realms of fantasy, dreams and the unconscious to challenge preconceived notions of gender and identity.

Pictures Heidi Khan, introspective and thoughtful, reveal the psychological foundations of femininity. Taking the isolated boundaries of the plane of the image to challenge traditional ideas about what it means to be a woman, the melancholic images of Khan occupy a world far from reality.

Donna Huddleston’s drawings, sculptures and installations often combine autobiographical elements with cinema history and theater design. Huddleston's work includes a magical realistic element in which the life of modern urban women is interwoven with occultism, supernatural, and science fiction.

The surreal, compressed figures of Becky Kolsrud occupy a space of fantasy, where inclined female bodies increase in size and become synthesized with mountain ridges and vast azure lakes.

Combining spiritual and religious iconography, vivid paintings of Naudlin Pierre act as portals to unearthly kingdoms. Against the backdrop of apocalyptic backgrounds, the artist depicts ghostly interactions between etheric creatures in order to explore the primary expressions of proximity.

The ethereal paintings of Matilda Rosier depict weightless, mixed figures that undergo bodily transformations. Exploring the psychological and physical experiences associated with ancient rituals, her work allows viewers to lose their perception of time and space, offering an alternative, other-worldly dimension.

The works of Antonia Showering are related to the fragility and ephemeral nature of memory. Saturated with a sense of the supernatural, her ghostly memories of family gatherings are depicted as if on the threshold of oblivion.
