3812 Gallery are delighted to invite you for an exclusive event, Her Embodied Language in Art, at our London gallery on Friday, 25 September, 6-8pm. Three female artists — Eleanor Ekserdjian, Elena Shkvarkina and J.Lei — will invite audiences to explore how movement can be encoded through artistic gesture, process and materiality within contemporary abstract practice, through live performance and personal sharing.
This event explores the gestural energies and visual languages employed by the three participating artists, examining how each channels memory, sensation, thought and perception through different media to create works that are emotionally palpable, though not always materially tangible.
All three artists share a common interest in translating personal and psychological narratives via unconventional media: Ekserdjian transforms projected imagery into lyrical fields of tension and atmosphere; Shkvarkina taps into ritualistic movement in performance for healing and transformation; J.Lei juxtaposes movement and stillness through instinctive gestures layered onto photographic landscapes and mixed-media surfaces.
Prior to the event, guests will also have the opportunity to explore our current women’s group exhibition, “Woven Voices – Her Story in Art,” on view until 27 September, which brings together over 60 works by 15 female artists, including the three artists featured in this event. The show unfolds distinct yet interconnected artistic languages. Together, their voices form a chorus that gives resonance to women’s agency, power and lived experience.
