LANGAG'S SACRED WORKS: THE METAMORPHOSES, MARTIN ABEGA
Overzicht
Inleiding
An exhibition co-curated with Mayi Arts
Carine Biley and Ngalula Mafwata are pleased to present *Sacred Languages: Metamorphoses*, a solo exhibition by Cameroonian photographer and visual artist Martin ABEGA at Filafriques in Geneva. Presented as part of a collaboration between Filafriques and MAYÌ ARTS, and curated by Ngalula Mafwata, the exhibition brings together a selection of photographic compositions and works that blend photography, textiles, embroidery, cowrie shells, and charcoal. “Sacred Languages: The Metamorphoses” explores the processes of transformation that affect both body and mind—trial, fragility, trace, transmission, and regeneration—metaphorically embodied through the female figure.
FROM THE IAGAL IMAGE TO MATTER
Martin ABEGA’s universe brings together the body, memory, and beauty. For ABEGA, photography is never an end in itself. It is a door, a sacred portal to other interconnected realms of thought. From photography to textiles, from embroidery to charcoal, the image extends, fragments, dissolves, and takes on a new form. These inner metamorphoses are then mirrored by visual metamorphoses. Sacred Languages: Metamorphoses does not seek to impose a definitive interpretation of the sacred. Rather, the exhibition opens up a space for contemplation and inquiry. What remains of us after the transformation?
