Ariadne Sevgi Avkiran's Tactile Masks at Fiè allo Sciliar

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Ariadne Sevgi Avkiran, born in Vienna in 1991, presents her exhibition 'Momente / Attimi' at Galleria Fiè in Fiè allo Sciliar, near Bolzano, until June 12, 2016. The show features tactile artworks that blend visual and sculptural elements. Avkiran creates plaster casts of her own face, applying heterogeneous materials such as gauze, wax, cement, fabrics, leaves, and branches. These masks, ethereal in form and plastic in material, embody the memory of encounters, transforming fleeting moments into tangible objects. A mirror in the exhibition reflects the viewer's face, altered by the accumulated memories of past meetings. The exhibition runs until June 12, 2016.
