Gazelli Art House: Jawhar

A pop-up exhibition for Alserkal Art Week by London-based Gazelli Art House. The group show aims to spotlight pressing environmental concerns and features Recycle Group; Libby Heaney; Kalliopi Lemos; Aida Mahmudova; Elnara Nasirli; Aidan Salakhova; and Matteo Zamagni.

Recycle Group is dedicated to repurposing discarded materials, highlighting the potential of reuse in the realm of contemporary art. Their sculptural works use the future as a lens to ponder contemporary society’s technological existence.

Libby Heaney’s digital artworks and sculptural interventions often explore the intersection between technology and the environment. Heaney prompts viewers to contemplate humanity’s relationship with nature, emphasising the need for sustainable living in the face of technological advancement.

Kalliopi Lemos’ artistry is also deeply rooted in environmental concerns. Her sculptures, installations, and mixed-media works are poignant visual metaphors that draw attention to the impact of environmental degradation on communities and ecosystems.

Aida Mahmudova’s practice often reflects the delicate balance between nature and human intervention, urging viewers to contemplate the fragility of the environment and the importance of preserving it for future generations.

Elnara Nasirli’s art practice revolves around the concept of interconnectedness, exploring the relationship between humans, nature, and technology.

Aidan Salakhova’s marble and granite sculptures make plain that addressing wider concerns are only achievable once we transcend and unveil societal enigmas.

Matteo Zamagni’s artworks serve as evocative examples of how art can be both aesthetically compelling and environmentally responsible. Zamagni looks to re-embed the viewer and their technologies within, rather than outside of, nature.

To 26 November.
