An art exhibition by Mario Abela, entitled Wood Love Some Space, is being held at Art e Gallery, Victoria.
Abela’s current work is a contemplative odyssey. It is a journey which strives to recover memories; those of an existentialist trying to synthesise the triangular relationship between self-consciousness, life itself and the cosmos.
The medium of expression is charcoal on paper, which portrays natural forms meshed up into cosmic formations. In this portrayal, he draws on such diverse subjects and elements as metaphysics and astrophysics, and yet the works are grounded in nature.
The gallery is open every morning until 12.30pm or by appointment by calling Maria Cassar on 9980 4774.
