Tarek Elkassouf’s Lines from Letters exhibition, housed in the Annex Gallery, offers an intimate exploration of the artist’s evolving creative process, where words and drawings intertwine to reveal unspoken emotions and deep reflections. Through a series of ink drawings, cutouts, and gilded works, Elkassouf delves into the spaces between language and visual expression, inviting viewers to contemplate how storytelling and words shape our perception of boundaries—both visible and invisible.
Central to the exhibition are Elkassouf’s intricate leporellos, where layers of paper and gold create windows into the artist’s thoughts, highlighting the transformation of ideas from text to form. This body of work captures the fluid movement from written concept to visual geometry, offering visitors a window into Elkassouf’s ongoing exploration of strength, vulnerability, and personal introspection.
