Mythic Mystic, group exhibition
Nave Sierrra --> 6–31 May, 2023In the neighbourhood of Fuencarral we will have the new independent space Nave Sierrra that opens its doors in May with the group exhibition "Mythic Mystic", with works by Cavecanems, Excómplice, Razorade and Álvaro Chior.
"Mythic Mystic" explores philosophical mysticism and its aesthetic representation, through a selection of works by artists who seek to explore the mysteries of human existence. Roland Barthes, in his work "Mythologies", states that "the mythical is a category superior to that of the sign", since "the sign is always cultural, the myth is always natural".
Through these works, the spiritual dimension of the human being is explored and the importance of mystery in everyday life is emphasised. “Mythic Mystic” is an invitation to enter into a contemplative and reflective experience through a series of works that seek to explore the mysteries of human existence.
The mystic is an experience that is lived in the subject's relationship with the world, and which manifests itself in the perception of the sacred, the divine or the transcendental. The mystical is a profound dimension of reality, which can be apprehended through intuition, emotion and personal experience, and which is often expressed in the form of symbols and metaphors. It is a way of knowing and understanding reality that goes beyond reason and language, and which manifests itself in the subject's relationship with the divine, the transcendental or the mysterious.
This exhibition seeks to offer an aesthetic and spiritual experience that invites reflection on the meaning of human existence and the relationship between the human being and the divine.
