OMM celebrates its 3rd year anniversary with a new group exhibition “Grief and Pleasure”, launching on 7 September 2022.  Bringing together works by 38 artists, the exhibition centers around the capacity of the body to inhabit emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, fear, surprise, disgust, contempt and shame, as well as contradictory states such as grief and pleasure. 

“Grief and Pleasure” showcases works produced in a range of media including painting, photography, sculpture, video and installation, with an aspiration to free the body from the yoke of authority and social ideologies, while holding a mirror to the changing values ​​and norms of contemporary society. The exhibition investigates the boundaries of the body and the ways in which it is confined, its place within a complex network of contemporary relations, its virtual potential, and the ethical and social parameters that affect it.
