LONDON (WNAM): Kazakh female artists Aigana Gali and Gulnur Mukazhanova presented their artworks on the ancestral connection at the La Makan, Cosmic Corporeality exhibition in the Three Highgate Gallery in London.
The exhibition, which will last through Oct. 15, immerses the audience in the intertwined notions of life and death combined with the complexity of space, time, and reality. The art objects offer insights from philosophical, spiritual, and religious standpoints.
In an interview with The Astana Times, Mukazhanova said she is “deeply interested in the history of the ancestors and all that they went through – the struggle for life, for land, the right to live a decent life, as all these topics carry a great discourse to this day.”
To philosophize, in her opinion, means “to think, to reflect, to observe, to discuss, and to question things that excite.”
The event was organized by the Ainalayin Space contemporary arts organization in London. Its art curator and founder Indira Dyussebayeva-Ziyabek has been working with contemporary art in Central Asia for 10 years through the AIDA (International Art Development Association) non-profit art organization with partners Laurent Lehmann and Dina Baitasova.
