Format: Solo exhibition

Forms of Silence was presented in Moscow through AIYA Collectible in 2022. The exhibition brought together sculptures that use simple geometric forms, including cubes and spheres, to explore nature and thought.

AIYA’s exhibition account describes geometric forms as a way of exploring nature, and larger wooden sculptures as expressions of thought. These installation photographs show the works at different scales and from several positions within the space.
