DUBAI: Here are some highlights from Ukranian artist Anna Chekh’s Dubai exhibition ‘Faceless’ exhibition, which runs until Jan. 10 at BOCCARA Gallery in Dubai For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @arabnews.lifestyle ‘Shadow Man’ The Thailand-based Ukranian contemporary artist Anna Chekh’s second exhibition in Dubai once again has a faceless “Shadow Man” as its central theme. It is supposed to symbolize the way that people have “removed themselves from the reality of physical interactions and rely on virtual social networks to experience life while remaining anonymous,” according to the gallery. ‘Modern Society’ This piece, Chekh wrote on Instagram, is “a vivid satire on what modern society looks like. Expressed in cariacaturesque emoji manner, the pattern of horses and buttocks reflects a limited range of emotions and the monotony of digital reality.” Chekh’s belief, according to a press release, is that an artist’s obligation is “to restore energy to society.” ‘Chaos’ “By being easy to find, yet hard to recognize, Anna’s Shadow Man in each artwork reveals society’s desire to be faceless,” the gallery’s statement continues. “Chaos” is a good example of the artist’s attempt to blend “contemporary surrealism with expressionism to showcase current social topics through cartoonish characters.”
