Covered Faces & Heads

As we have said before they can be seen as a screen between us and the world or as a tool to hide from our view what we do not want to see.  Connected to this, we have also seen representations of double as well as triple faces.  As if times of war were not just times to hide ourselves but to question what we are capable of doing:

times to put on different faces, to question ourselves about how many personalities we have and which one we are actually "wearing".

Ikon Gallery Birmingham

Few days ago, I went to Ikon to see Robert Orchardson's and Marjolijin Dijkman's exhibitions.

The name of Orchardoson's exhibition is Endless Facade.  He used repeatable geometric patterns to create the infinity.  Even the wall was structured by triangles.




Dijkman's exhibition name is Theatrum Orbis Terrarum.  Most of the art pieces are pictures taken from different countries, taken on something you will normally miss.  His design concept was come from the first atlas.  In the centre of the exhibition, there was a map created from circles.
