The exhibition invites visitors to look at everyday objects, materials and forms in a new way. Through her work, Kanagini highlights the beauty and meaning of ordinary things, exploring the links between art, everyday life and memory.
The exhibition features work created by the artist from the 1960s to the 2000s. In her work, everyday objects take on new meanings and become part of a unique artistic narrative.
With sensitivity, creativity and a spirit of experimentation, Niki Kanagini transformed familiar objects into a way of exploring new artistic ideas and reflecting on the world around us.
