Zahrah Alghamdi’s practice emerges from the soil, stone, and memory of her hometown, Al Baha. For AlGhamdi, materials carry histories, emotions, and the capacity to mediate between past and present. Traces of Alghamdi’s body are materialized through the organic matter she engages with physically at the site of production. The exhibition becomes a site of inception, as Alghamdi’s gestures become fixed in the space. This new body of work is rooted in Alghamdi’s figurative drawings. Between Memory and Matter becomes a theatre of personified figures that represent memory. It opens the discourse on shared grief using the body as the precursor to that dialogue.
Hours: Saturday-Thursday 9am-1pm and 4-7pm
