Waves: The Fabric of Agrarian Landscapes
You are invited to the opening of the photographic exhibition by Andreja Ravnak, “Waves: The Fabric of Agrarian Landscapes”, on 10 December 2024 in the Gallery Božena of the Photo House Pelikan.
The exhibition features photographic abstractions of the undulating fields of Tuscany and South Moravia, which at times resemble vibrantly woven flying carpets or silk draped over the curves of a body. The artist explores the aesthetics of intertwining the organic curves of bare landscapes with the textures and geometries of mechanically cultivated land.
The exhibition will be on display until 8 February 2025.
