Double Exhibition "Athir - Ethereal Journey"
by Brian Flynn and Mona Vardi
From 27 February to 17 March 2021
Athir - Ether, also called quintessence or spirit, is the 5th element that supplements the four classical elements earth, water, wind and fire. The element of ether is the celestial energy that fills all spaces. Ether acts as a bridge between Earth/Body and Heaven/Spirit.
For the Athir exhibition, we brought together two artists, who come from western countries but live in Egypt for many years. Brian Flynn's and Mona Vardi's artworks are inspirited by and connected with this 5th dimension.
Brian Flynn's paintings focus on the vital essence of the subject in its specific environment. They concentrate on the emotional, physical and spiritual expression of the subject. The result is a work that evokes the colossal nature of so many ancient Egyptian monuments in a contemporary manner.
Mona Vardi uses a multitude of organic materials to create vibrant dream spaces in her artworks. In her paintings, pigments and powdered stones are mixed and poured on top of paint and collages as liquid substances. For her sculptures, she assembles a wide range of materials including bones, skins and roots transforming them into shamanic artworks to embrace the essence of the divine in femininity.
Nūn Art Gallery is founded and jointly managed by Sayed Qinawi and Claudia Ali. We are dedicated to showcasing the impressive visual artworks of Egyptian artists continuously promoting established artists as well as searching for new talents. We chose the Nūn to represent our gallery because of its complex meaning in the Sufi tradition as well as in the ancient Egyptian mythology.
