'East of Eden' | | atractivoquenobello

Patrick Fabian Panetta is presenting solo exhibition A Journey Through Vibrant Space at Berlin’s Exile, opening November 25 and running to December 17.

The press release sites The Land of Nod, an English idiom taken from a place in the book of Genesis (from the Bible). Located ‘east of Eden’ it’s where Cain fled to after murdering his brother Abel, condemning himself to a life of wandering the land alone forever.

The exhibition places itself within this “imaginary realm of sleep and dreams” that the vast and vacant landscape denotes, exploring what it means to emerge from sleep, “a restless subconsciousness surrounded by a state of external quiescence, providing the mind with a protection for regeneration.”

See the Exile website for details.**
