Duplicity Of Looks Art Exhibition of Selected Acrylic and Oil Paintings by NANA FREMA.

 

Duplicity of Looks, an exhibition of selected acrylic and oil paintings hosted by the Women Arts Museum Ghana is opening from 1st May to 1st June 2023. The exhibition is exclusively showcasing the works of Nana Frema in a virtual gallery at the following ulr: https://visit.virtualartgallery.com/nanafrema/

Visitors can access the gallery 24 hours a day, throughout the week for free via our online platform and would be exposed to stunning visual representations.

The art exhibition also introduces the viewer to the painter's innocence, her interpretation of creativity and what it symbolizes. Given enough time and the right amount of self-presence, the paintings would reveal another reality if looked deeper into.

The paintings are an index of Frema’s deeper waves of enquiry about her evolving life perspectives. Thinking beyond first impressions when evaluating her life situations has allowed her to be inclusive in her observations about what lies beneath the outer look of things.

Producing the paintings was emotionally demanding because she had to drop all her accumulated knowledge. From a place of oneness with herself, she began expressing her emotional self without duplication, just herself and the universe.

The artist applied different techniques to articulate her point of view. The exhibition is a melting pot of texture, cubes, abstract landscapes, abstract faces, and the moon.  

Visitors to the exhibition can also gain insight into the artist's vision and creative process. The exhibition was made possible through an exhibition grant of $2800 that Nana Frema received from the Women Arts Museum Ghana. The selected works of 10 acrylic and oil paintings are also available for sale. Visitors may place an order and have it delivered to them after the exhibition.
