RAVNIKAR is proud to present a curated dialogue featuring the works of three established Ljubljana-based artists: Tadej Vaukman, Maja Babič Košir, and Nevena Aleksovski. This exhibition, carefully curated to explore themes of fear, memory, familial relationships, alienation, and migration, is explored through distinct artistic practices.
Maja Babič Košir’s artistic journey is deeply rooted in introspection and contemplation. Drawing from personal history and surroundings, Košir’s creative process is characterized by its intuitive nature. Utilizing materials sourced from her family archive, particularly those inherited from her late father, Košir employs techniques such as repainting, melting, breaking, and tearing to breathe new life into these objects. Through this meticulous transformation, she transcends the mere physicality of these materials, imbuing them with profound narrative depth.
Nevena Aleksovski’s artistic exploration centers around the complex and multifaceted phenomenon of migration. Through minimalist drawings and paintings, Aleksovski challenges conventional narratives surrounding migration, urging viewers to reconsider preconceived notions and stereotypes. Her work goes beyond surface-level depictions of migrant experiences, delving into the nuanced challenges faced by individuals labeled as “Others” in new environments.
Tadej Vaukman’s latest series marks a departure into the realm of self-portraiture. Through candid introspection and reflection, Vaukman navigates the complexities of personal identity and societal expectations. Set against the backdrop of Istria, a space imbued with personal significance and symbolism, Vaukman’s work explores themes of transition, resilience, and inner peace. His photographs serve as windows into his own psyche, inviting viewers to contemplate the universal struggles of the human condition.
This group exhibition invites viewers to engage with artists’ perspectives on shared human experiences. Vaukman, Košir, and Aleksovski explore memory, migration, and belonging through diverse artistic practices. By immersing themselves in these works, viewers are prompted to reconsider their perceptions, fostering a deeper understanding of human interconnectedness.
