#Morjana

RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA

Alicja Kwade’s Morjana invites viewers into a labyrinth of interlocking light and reflections, blending self-exploration with collective perception. Mirrors and glass create shifting perspectives, allowing visitors to shape the artwork through movement while influencing those around them.

Amid the ever-changing light, the steady presence of streetlamps and surrounding plants grounds the installation, symbolizing the balance between industrial and natural elements. Morjana becomes a space where reality transforms, perspectives evolve, and fleeting illusions contrast with enduring surroundings.

This immersive work seamlessly merges interaction, reflection, and balance, offering a unique experience that changes with each observer.
