Limelight : Ibrahim El-Salahi - Haraz

28 Apr-31 May 2015

Overview

This exhibition will present Ibrahim El Salahi’s Tree works. These works reflect El-Salahi’s fascination with the Haraz tree, indigenous to Sudan, which has peculiar and inspirational characteristics. The series inspired by this tree, is an ongoing investigation of the tree / body metaphor, a link between heaven and earth, creator and created. They are controlled meditations with the emphasis on the spiritual and Salahi sees himself and the role of the artist as akin to the Haraz.
