As we continue to reflect on how the present day has been transformed by the pandemic, the exhibition “Across the continents: Nothing Special”, a crossover between African and Chinese art,  highlights the unconscious overlooking of the essentials and beauty in our daily life.

The presentation juxtaposes contemporary oil paintings from Moroccan artist Nouiri Mohamed and Chinese Ming furniture from the 17th  century. The works create a dialogue between simplicity and richness; restraint and boldness, yet share a sense of harmony and devotion to skills from both cultures.

​Nouiri’s art embodies the civilization of the environment he grew up in, but at the same time, he is creating a new pictorial language, which is meaningful to the modern-day human society. Visual beauty is not entirely his objective, the beauty is in the inner truth. He focuses on the inner beauty, and through his paintbrush, he transmits the idea to his sophisticated viewers.
