”​Ecology of the After Life”, Anca PoteraÈ™u Gallery, Bucharest, Romania, 08 May - 01 July 2024
Anca Poterasu Gallery presents Ecology of the After Life, an exhibition that revolves around recurrent and obsessive questions regarding human existence, science, nature’s resilience, and the echoes of our actions.
The exhibition serves as a metaphor for the regeneration of life as a whole, exploring not only human existence but also the intricate connections between organisms that sustain life on Earth. From Aurora Király’s landscapes to Delia Popa’s introspective reflections, Iosif Király’s blurring of reality and fantasy, Ioana Cîrlig’s documentation of coal miners, and Matei Bejenaru’s chronicles of forgotten spaces, Ecology of the Afterlife contemplates the interconnectedness of living beings.
