Faris Heizer: The Man Who Eventually Moved Solo Exhibition

Cuturi Gallery is pleased to present The Man Who Eventually Moved, a new series of works by Faris Heizer (b. 1998, Singapore). In this collection, Heizer delves into themes of stillness, routine, and comfort found in the mundane.

Heizer’s creative process is introspective and deeply personal, starting with an emotional response that he gradually fills in with scenes from everyday life. Layered over with thin glazes of acrylic paint and dry brushwork, his fuzzy rendering creates scenes, as if emitted through a softened, dream-like lens. His works echo a sense of quiet endurance; figures are often depicted in solitary states, enveloped by the gentle interplay of light and shadow.

The Man Who Eventually Moved reflects on the understated resilience of individuals who accept their circumstances while continuing to move forward. It meditates on the weight of the past that lingers, the familiarity found in daily routines, and the process of embracing change.

The exhibition will be on view at the gallery from 14 September - 19 October 2024.
