Faisal Samra: Immortal Moment II – Coping with the Shock

A solo exhibition with the second body of work from Faisal Samra’s Immortal Moment project, artworks created through the accumulation of instances that push the viewer to question the opportunities of a single moment. In the first chapter of this project, Faisal describes the technique as an expression of emotions; for the current show he defines the outcome as a shock; the exhibition will reveal the process of Coping with the Shock.

“The dialogue between the abstract and figurative, conceptually or formalistically, is essential to Faisal’s work. Time, being one of the most abstract ideas, becomes figurative when Faisal visually notes down specific points in time through the use of charcoal and paint. The result is formalistically abstract, but the final creation becomes figurative through several interventions, which represent a culmination of temporal instances.”

To 15 April.
