Embark on an Artistic Voyage: 'Silence & Noise' Exhibition by Mohamed Ikram at Oaga Art Resort
Sunday 29th of October 2023
Amidst the idyllic beauty of the Maldives, Suvāsthi Gallery is set to whisk travelers and art aficionados into an intimate exploration of "Silence & Noise" - an art exhibition by local luminary, Mohamed Ikram, also known as Araakaa. This captivating exhibition will grace Oaga Art Resort throughout the final week of October 2023.
Ikram wields sketching and drawing as an intuitive medium to contemplate his own essence within Maldivian society, as well as within the broader political landscape. The showcased drawings, created between 2020 and 2022, serve as a poignant documentation of a globally and personally significant period. Ikram reflects, "I lived in Male’ and its suburbs most of my life, and my work is influenced by the city and its social environment." The exhibition made its debut at 350 Gallery, Male’ in June 2023.
In tandem with this exhibition, Suvāsthi will also feature a selection of artwork displayed at the resort’s Veyoge Gallery Villas during the same week. With a curated collection of 154 pieces by over 40 local artists, Suvāsthi Gallery stands as the largest repository of local art in a Maldivian resort. The gallery endeavors to host such caravan exhibitions regularly at Oaga Art Resort, providing travelers with a unique opportunity to directly engage with the local art community.
Suvāsthi Gallery by Oaga Art Resort serves as a platform to showcase the passionate talent of the Maldives to global travelers. Conceived under the resort’s "Fannuverin Fathuruverinnah" initiative, Suvāsthi Gallery beckons travelers to peruse curated collections and retail spaces, offering a timeless taste of the Maldivian spirit.
