On view at our Contemporary Istanbul Booth (T7-02) is the work of Mouna Rebeiz.
Her great sculptures, like revisited totems, are set to the rhythms of present time in the playfulness of space. She reminds us that each part, albeit isolated, symbolizes a whole. The piece of the puzzle towards understanding the stones of a temple destroyed thousands of years ago; the relic keenly contested, safeguarded and sanctified. This tiny little bit of almost nothing retains the original principle of a great work that no longer exists; the DNA from which it could be reborn. When the pieces of the puzzle are reassembled, landscapes reappear in all their splendor, as if by magic. The faces take shape again, the genre scenes come alive once more, as in Flemish paintings. Life begins anew.
