In the exhibition “DAPHNE1” from 11.09.2023 to 19.09.2023 (extended until 27.09.2023) at the aquabitArt gallery, the narrative of the Daphne-Apollon mythology is instinctively re-examined. The canon of art history, determined by patriarchy, is critiqued and deconstructed through the works of women artists to provide an alternative, feminist narrative.
Daphne is no longer a victim, but is transformed into a symbol of resistance to sexualized violence through a metaphysical response a la “DEAE EX MACHINA” (Latin f. goddesses from the machine).
The conceptual and intuitive works from different media will be on view during Berlin Art Week 2023.
