Naila Art Gallery is pleased to present Mohammad Zaza’s second solo show at the Gallery, “This is Not a Coincidence”, running from April 1-14.
Mohammed Zaza’s investigates the cosmic reasons for chance in his series of paintings exploring the ideas of coincidence, random encounters, and arbitrary collisions. His conceptual approach is based on an attempt to understand collective consciousness. The kaleidoscope of wonder is used to ask the audiences to reassess what is perceived as planned versus random.
The artists has said of his new series, as with his previous work in which he articulated a captivation with how coincidental is coincidence, he is “exploring new ways to construct figments in non-hierarchical visual fields and further redefining the concept of havoc and chaos.”
