OFFICE IN A SMALL CITY – Edward Hopper

Shows a man isolated both emotionally and physically

Daydreaming rather than working

Despite light and air, he seems trapped

It is his imagination about typical modern life in 1953!

Papilla Estelar | Remedios Varo

A woman and the moon, both seem tired, both are confined, one in a
cage, the other in a tower that reaches the sky, the woman perhaps of
her own free will, if she wants, can leave;
The moon no. With her left hand she condenses the universe, she
transforms the dust of stars into porridge.
The woman feeds the moon.

Here We Are | Kushana Bush


Bush seamlessly infuses historical references
with symbols of our contemporary world, blurring
temporal, cultural and geographical boundaries

Her storied depictions of collision and


coexistence tap into something fundamental
about the fabric of societies; the way we
commune and communicate; the way we
construct meaning and create purpose; the way
we exchange and evolve.

Untitled/Cobweb- Reena Saini Kallat


Open Border is a large wall on the natural skating trail on the Assiniboine

River in Winnipeg. The red barrier spans the river and is clearly visible in

the contrasting snowy landscape. Skaters and pedestrians can cross the

border over the full length. Inside the wall the atmosphere feels warmer, a

friendly place that invites people to play and come together.

Open Border responds to the tensed political climate. The completion of

the project is at the same that the United States president confirms his

plans for the construction of a wall along the Mexican border and makes

the decision to close the borders for several Muslim countries. Instead of

keeping people out, this wall let people pass through.

Nussbaum

Jewish man

It is literally a self-mirror portrait
