DAVARDO - The Uncanny Beauty of Existing In Between
A study of consciousness in flux-where lived stories meet the half-dreamt, and the familiar becomes the spectral.
These works by Davardo, can be described as a liminal exploration of consciousness, weaving the tangible textures of lived experiences with the elusive, dreamlike qualities of transitional states. They inhabit the threshold between the anecdotal and the abstract, where personal narratives dissolve into hypnogogic (pre-sleep) and hypnopompic (pre-awakening) imagery. This creates a fluid dialogue between the concrete and the surreal, inviting viewers to traverse the borderlands of memory, perception and subconscious intuition. The work acts as a bridge translating ephemeral moments - both grounded and ethereal - into visual or sensory form, evoking the uncanny beauty of existing in the in-between.
