This multifaceted solo-exhibition by Majak Bredell comprises numerous artworks with vibrant compositions, and the various combinations of figures, animals, plants, insects in imaginative landscapes, create an intriguing and enjoyable viewers’ experience. These artworks are well thought through and speak of deep and prolonged contemplation of the concepts that she works with.
Majak explains: ‘INTERCONNECTIONS consists of two parts: DIALOGUES & ANALOGIES and LEVELS & LAYERS. Several thought processes went into creating this body of work. They include our relationship to deity/worship and the history of the nude body in art. Most of us were socialized to look upward to find the sacred in an invisible realm. I reverse this notion by returning the gaze earthward, towards the sacred body of the Earth. I differentiate between the energies of earth’s deep finite “what-is-ness” and the high infinite energy of sky and cosmos, a realm that served for the imagined energies we projected onto the Heavens.’
