Eva Helene Pade's debut solo exhibition "Moment of Transitions" is currently on view at the gallery.⁠ ⁠ Eva Helene Pade⁠ Faces of the many (2022)⁠ Acrylic and oil on wooden panel⁠ 275 x 205 cm⁠ ⁠ "Moment of Transitions explores" social dissolution, unravelling, and collapse. Transitions are spaces of uncertainty. They hold no unified conclusions nor promise of a better tomorrow. The crowd screams in fear and moans in lust, groans in pain, dances, stares in stunned silence, and flees in panic, unbound by societal restraint. The grin of pain mirrors the smile of laughter as the grotesque turns satirical in the theatre of life. At the end of reason awaits chaos and absurdity. Faced with meaninglessness rationality falls away.⁠ ⁠ "Moment of Transitions" experiments with and subverts the traditions of Western art. Several of the exhibited works adopt the monumental scale traditionally reserved for history painting. Eva Helene Pade replaces the glorifying scenes of military victory and classical triumph that fill the walls of western museums with stories from the moment of collapse. The works indulge the ugly, the unruly, and the chaotic, and shift attention onto subjective embodied experience. ⁠ ⁠ #evahelenepade @evahpade #momentoftransitions #nicolaiwallner
