WIELS Project Room
The WIELS Project Room presents a new series of paintings and a new installation by artist-in-residency Wafae Ahalouch el Keriasti.
In her drawings, paintings, installations and sculptures, Wafae Ahalouch el Keriasti's (b. 1978, Tanger, MA; lives and works in Amsterdam) reveals a personal vision of our alienated world. History, religion, politics, film, fairy tales, family structures and the media are her most important sources of inspiration, but it's the role of women, from a personal, historical and political viewpoint, that has attracted her attention in recent times. Ahalouch often works by series in which she fuses several stories together and from which new images and stories derive.
