Medrar announces “Where do I go after millions of years?” Solo exhibition by Amir Abdelghany
“Where do I go after millions of years?” Solo exhibition by Amir Abdelghany is an art project presenting an exploration of the issues of climate change and their effect on living creatures through a conceptualization of Centers of Evolution for the species most adaptable to changing environments — inspired by plant hybridization in agricultural greenhouses. The project questions the relationship between the human species and other creatures that may be more adaptable, as well as the possibility of genetic and organic self-evolution versus that of human extinction.
“Where Do I Go in Millions of Years?” is part of an extended project, posing Amir’s musings around our inherent ability to evolve, while comparing them to our role as functional agents in our immediate environments. The artist also attempts to understand the effects of inaudible frequencies in the communication of living creatures and the effect of said frequencies on cellular operations.
Abdelghany, through multiple mediums, produces three-dimensional and spatial compositions that embody a futuristic vision of creature evolution, suggesting the existence of fictional incubators that hybridize animal, plant and human cells.
Join us for the opening night, on Sunday, November 3rd, 2024, at 7 PM at Medrar.
The exhibition runs until Sunday, November 24th, 2024, Open daily from 4 to 9 PM, except Friday.
