  • For its return to the fair, AFIKARIS brings together six artists who are profoundly attentive to their environments, transforming the act of observation into an emotional, even meditative, experience. Each artist urges us to notice what we may have overlooked. Through vibrant, expressive visual languages, they illuminate themes that carry historical, political, and spiritual weight. Prompting us not only to see, but to listen, reflect, and remember.
