RHODES presents Embraced, a group exhibition featuring thirteen ultra-contemporary artists whose primary focus is painted portraiture with a profound focus on the human body.
Embraced explores the intricacies of the human form, offering a nuanced perspective on intimacy by capturing fleeting moments that reveal the essence of the subjects' lives.
Through the presented works, the exhibition seeks to re-examine identity in portraiture by centring on the human body as a canvas for individual stories, delving into the complexities of emotions, relationships, and personal narratives, using the human form as a conduit for expressing the universal aspects of the human experience.
The collection of works in Embraced explore how contemporary portraiture can communicate emotional depth and resonance through the depiction of the human body, highlighting the body as a vessel for storytelling and self-expression. The power of subtle gestures, poses, and expressions and how these communicate intimacy. The exhibition features works that capture the vulnerability and authenticity of the human form, inviting viewers to connect with the subjects on a visceral level.
Embraced asks the viewer to reflect on their own bodily experiences and engage with the subjects on a philosophical level and confront the authenticity of their own experiences.
