SUMMARY:Between Worlds Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:– PUBLIC EVENT –  \nNOW Gallery and Imile Wepener presents Between Worlds \nMermaids have long occupied the space between myth and reality\, dream and nightmare\, beauty and danger. As hybrid beings – half human and half animal – they embody duality and transformation\, reflecting deep-seated cultural narratives about identity\, power and desire. \nThe exhibition\, Between Worlds\, allows artists to interrogate the mermaid’s place in contemporary culture\, questioning the archetypes that have defined these figures. How does the mermaid’s hybridity speak to issues of belonging\, otherness and self reinvention? What does it mean to exist between categories of identity of human and animal\, resisting easy classification? The anchoring theme of mermaids speaks to the fluidity of the body and how its transformation is both cursed and liberated. \nBy placing mermaids in dialogue with today’s complex conversations around gender and identity\, mythology and ecology\, Between Worlds offers a space to reimagine these half human beings beyond folklore\, allowing them to be something new: symbols of resistance and infinite possibility. \nVIEW CATALOGUE
