FE{MALE} - Ria Gallery
3/16/2023 - 5/1/2023
The FE{MALE} exhibition featured a multifaceted group of ten artists whose work dances between figurative gestures and the vast terrain of abstraction. The exhibition examined each artist's relationship to color, form, texture, line, and value, the six elements of abstract art.
The exhibition presented their artistic practice not just from a gender perspective but from the historically aggrieved position and place of women artists in art history. Offering a space for minority voices, FE{MALE} presented this group as artists in their own right, brimming with layers of complexities and contrasting narratives.
One of the standout pieces from the show was titled "Come Together," measuring 50x50. Laila's work explores themes of love and unity, and "Come Together" is a striking example of her style.
