Modelling the Infinity of our Existence
Always elusive and tantalizingly beyond grasp, the quest for infinity has captured humanity’s imagination for millennia. Aspiring to model the infinity of our existence, the works of sculptor Dr. Gindi depict the current and perennial challenges of the human condition. Her classical training as a sculptor enables Dr Gindi to approach humanness more profoundly. Her sculptures are made from different materials. The most recent ones are generated from clay and later transformed into bronze.
Embracing her transdisciplinary career path and multicultural upbringing, she has keenly observed humanity’s attempts to subjugate nature to overcome human decay. The characters in Dr. Gindi’s works, who yearn for such an irrepressible urge for infinity, depict humanity’s dissociation from self and nature and attempt to redress this rupture by acknowledging their fleeting impermanence.
“My work is full of dichotomies as I seek to stage paradox and harmony. I am not dogmatic about my style as I make sculptures that resist codification. I am always developing and thus returning back to its origins – the kneading of clay.”
