Seeding Circles offers a retrospective look at the Greek-Armenian diasporic artist Aikaterini Gegisian, who works between Thessaloniki and London. The exhibition weaves together reimagined and re-collaged older works with new commissions inspired by Gegisian’s experience of returning to agricultural practices. The exhibition consists of evocative collages in the form of images, textiles and humorous videos. The artist works with collage as a feminist method that aims to redistribute power relations. In this process, Gegisian goes back to the archives of popular culture and mass media from the 1960s to 1990s. She invites us to rethink and reimagine the past as she develops new imagery for the future as a world-making practice marked by emotional joy and visual pleasure. Seeding Circles is about “small things” like gardening, vernacular practices and decorative arts that play equally important roles in the circles of life, nature and art that are all the focus of Gegisian’s analytical and sensual art.  The exhibition is conceived through the agricultural narrative of a garden.”
