HARIS EPAMINONDA. FILMS

The SCHIRN presents a solo exhibition of the young Cypriot artist Haris Epaminonda's work. Her production is essentially determined by the collage technique which she has extended by combining pictures, films, photographs, sculptures, earthenware vessels, pieces of woodwork, Chinese porcelain, antique figures, and other found objects from a wide range of sources to complex installations. Epaminonda deliberately avoids all references to her objects' date and place of provenance and meaning. The viewer is rather thrown back upon himself and his own associations.

All the artist's pictorial, filmic and spatial compositions share a similar sensibility and texture. Epaminonda's subtle and yet strangely emotive language opens up an imaginary space in which one can lose oneself in a realm of relations and gestures of its own while moving through the exhibition. For the SCHIRN, Epaminonda will create a new installation which will question aspects of time, motion, stillness, as well as of representation and presentation.
