Weeping Women
Gallery II
June 01 2023 - July 01 2023
Gallery II is proud to present Weeping, a solo exhibition by the artist Elena Rotenberg Ajoku. The exhibition presents a series of paintings that most of them were created during the last two years, using airbrush technique: thin paint pushed by air pressure onto the canvas. Rotenberg Ajoku's paintings have a nuclear, fuzzy quality that doesn't allow for focusing. She works facing conventions of images, emphasizing the presence of dream consciousness in everyday life. Her paintings evoke a feeling of emptiness, anticipation, a ghostly image that aims to point to something without being able to touch the thing itself.
