Vernissage
Walking Wounded
With Endpunkt [Iulia Hulea & Paul Petrar]
The exhibition titled ”Walking Wounded” proposes a multifaceted exploration of queer subjects, interspersed with issues closely related to fields such as feminism, anthropology, and theology. The queer body, simultaneously represented in literal and symbolic ways through various elements that extend throughout the works, acquires new features. It becomes a living visual archive, the life experiences of the two artists being the starting point of these interdisciplinary explorations. Bodily modifications in relation to individual and collective trauma, the relationships between violence and abstinence, as well as guilt and subordination, are questioned through palpable approaches, where touching is as important as seeing.
Endpunkt is an artistic duo formed by Iulia Hulea and Paul Petrar. Starting from the point where their practices intersect, the duo aims for an interdisciplinary, fluid collaboration based not only on artistic results per se but also on the vulnerability they share as individuals in the queer community.
