Playing Time & Space
By Wunna Aung, Thu Myat & Bart Was Not Here
Wunna Aung, Thu Myat and “Bart Was Not Here” are three artists from Myanmar known for their involvement in the Yangon Street Art scene.
Facing a never ending political transition and consequent disenchantments, they find solace in creating the “sidewise world” they would like to live in. In this exhibition, their art becomes a machine to travel through time and space in a playful way. Fond of chronicles, Wunna Aung recreates historical characters who endured difficult times, passionnated about the interstellar universe, Thu Myat depicts a cosmos inhabited by aliens and gods, frustrated by the world he lives in, “Bart Was Not Here” creates a Temple of Escapism, inspired by what he calls a “God Complex”.
This exhibition encompasses three colourful and witty new series of paintings and a collective artwork revisiting pop-art and mural tradition.
