The Age of Ceremony, a duo exhibition at Galerie Sara Lily Perez, features artists Vasil Berela and Jana Jacob, who explore complex themes of existence and identity. Their works resonate with the importance of slowing down amidst today's fast-paced world. Berela examines the fragility and emotionality of life through geometric sculptures, while Jacob's self-portraits merge personal history and contemporary cultural narratives. This exhibition invites viewers to reflect on intimate aspects of humanity and the quiet rituals of existence, encouraging deeper psychological engagement with their art.
“In a world often characterized by disconnection and hyper-visibility, Berela and Jacob honor the quiet rituals of existence—intimate moments of self-reflection and emotional vulnerability.”
“Berela's sculptures confront the ephemeral nature of life, depicting the human body as a dynamic entity within stark, geometric environments, inviting contemplative reflection on existence.”
“Jacob's self-portraiture incorporates everyday objects and traditional Thai textiles, weaving personal history into contemporary identity, illustrating the fluidity of cultural expression.”
“Their artworks resonate with an urgency to slow down and reflect on those fleeting yet monumental aspects of our shared humanity.”
