Silverscreen

The bas reliëf titled ‘Silver screen’ by Nadia Naveau looks like it was ever present in the city. Next to the silver color, her playful link to art history is first noticeable. Naveau shows the viewer: (from left to right) a blindfolded cat, a window with curtains, a cylinder. Nadia Naveau combines different unrelated elements and finds content/thematics in the associations.  All three relating to that what wee see and that what is hidden at the same time. The cylinder might hold something captured within and blocks the viewers vision from seeing what is depicted behind it. It’s all part of Naveaus game. This work merges with the wall above the main entrance of Demian bookstore and is the public version of one of here previous works called “green silverscreen”, which as the name indicates is green of color.
