Ella is an exhibition which examines the personal connections every person has to a woman. Be it their mother, grandmother, sister, cousin, friend, or significant other, every person has a special woman in their life. Through her series of sculptures Nour Kuri explores connection, perception, and emotion we have with the women in our lives. This exhibition not only challenges the viewer to think about these connections in their own lives but is also a celebration of the achievements of women in all aspects of life.

Nour perceives reality beyond appearances and uses sculpture as her medium to communicate her emotions and feelings through Bronze, Marble, Wood, Terra cotta and Glass. Her style is modern and incorporates stylized human forms. Though her sculptures tend to delve into abstraction, they maintain resemblance to the original form. The recurrent theme in Nour’s work is the human form, seeking to express it in different moments of life, love, family, and community.

This exhibition was organized by the artist, Nour Kuri.
