Nadim Karam: Stretching Thoughts

21 January - 2 April 2016

Ayyam Gallery Beirut is pleased to present Stretching Thoughts, the solo show of internationally renowned artist Nadim Karam. 

 

Highlighting a new body of work, the exhibition includes recent sculptures, installation and mixed media paintings that explore the inquisitive nature and boundless imagination of the human mind. Stretching Thoughts questions the impact of national, regional, and global decisions that affect personal histories, and how human creativity has the potential to grow beyond their imposed boundaries.

 

At a time when demarcated borders are becoming increasingly porous and notions of collectivity transcend physical space through mass migration and constant exchanges across the digital sphere, Karam’s latest series asserts the power of the connectivity that we carry within us, the importance of stories, and the will to confront situations much larger than ourselves.
