A rare term used by scholars to describe incomprehensible objects and deformed beings in curiosity chambers and nature, the title of the exhibition alludes to the theme of the works presented: deformation, mutation and monstrosity lie in the epicenter of the concept. Therefore, this exhibition aims to highlight these ‘monsters’, give them a voice to speak out and act as wonders of nature accessible to the human eye through the magic lens of art. Exploring the theme of Frankenstein-ism through the eyes of a variety of established contemporary artists offers a unique opportunity for contemplation on the topic and its various expressions. Some humorous, some beautiful, some gloomy, some completely absurd, the scenes and characters shown on the paintings, sculptures and drawings of the artists presented are to be experienced with a range of emotions: fear, surprise, compassion, desire and disgust. @vanessa_souli vanessa-souli.com
