“Humans do not make art and write because they are rational and free; rather, they are rational and free because they write and make art.” Catherine Malabou
Metamorphosis explores the body as something in constant change, not fixed or separate, but part of a larger web of forces that shape who we are. The exhibition reflects on how our bodies and identities are being transformed by the systems around us, technological, social, and material; and how, within this transformation, something deeply human still persists.
The artworks question the old idea of the human being as central and in control. Instead, they reveal a world where humans, machines, and matter are all intertwined. The body becomes a site of both control and resistance, marked by power, yet always capable of renewal and change.
In this surreal vision, the boundaries between the organic and the artificial begin to fade. The figures and forms in Metamorphosis suggest that transformation is not a sudden break, but a continuous state of becoming: a movement between decay and vitality, order and chaos.
Ultimately, this exhibition invites viewers to see the body not as a stable image, but as an evolving process, a reflection of the world’s shifting systems, and a reminder that even within collapse, new forms of life and imagination can emerge.
