The flash show features female artists who, in one way or another, deal in their work with being human or noticing human activity. What seems insignificant or looks unimportant is actually what creates our existence, our world, our home, our memories. Let this be the women around us, for example.
Being invisible is not just a desired superpower since childhood, but the daily life of billions of women. But it must also be noted that at certain moments, environments or a certain age, it is replaced by excessive and unnecessary attention. Women are in a state of endless limbo, trying to figure out how to find a balance between all the (hundreds) of roles that women carry or are expected to play.
Women have also had a role to play in art. The female nude became a symbol of modernism and we can safely say that it is still one of the main attractions today, not only in art. In this flash show, we also focus on women, but more specifically on their portrayals. The works in the exhibition can be divided into two in terms of their character and motifs, showing, introducing and acknowledging invisible, but here made visible, aspects of women’s daily lives, work, roles and image.
The show fits into this current moment, being a stopping point between Women’s Day and Mother’s Day to draw attention to the people around us and who shape our behaviours – mothers, sisters, daughters, aunts, girlfriends, grandmothers, great-grandmothers.
The flash show will be up until 17 May.
