Hol(e)y [Multimedia exposition]

Abstract

Holey is an exhibition by curated by Matthew and Julia Galea. Holey featured the works of: Caesar Attard, Matthew Attard, Aaron Bezzina, Isaac Bezzina, Kane Cali, Rachelle Deguara, Madeleine Fenwick, Courtney Florian, Julia Galea, Matyou Galea, Patrick Galea, Pierre Portelli, Sasha Vella.

This show loosely follows the concept ideated for 摩udha (2019) as an independent, artist led pop up exhibition with no funding or institutional backing. All works presented were specifically made for the show (apart from one). Whilst hard to point at decisively and quantify, there is a half hypothesis that the nature of the work is very different to what the artists (especially the more established ones) show in other exhibitions. Like in 摩udha there was a healthy mix of established practitioners and those who exhibited their work for the first time. Fun fact, there were 4 couples exhibiting together in the show.
