XVA Gallery presents Colleen Quigley鈥檚 solo exhibition, The Remarkable Resilience of Symbols. Artist Colleen Quigley鈥檚 new body of work incorporates patterns and decorative symbols from the urban landscape of Dubai, including the historical district of Al Fahidi in Bur Dubai. The exhibit focuses on the flow and transformation of design patterns and raises the question about the fixing of an identity of diverse elements of material culture that transform themselves in surprising ways across time and space.
Colleen Quigley is a Japanese-American artist from Philadelphia and is currently living and working in Dubai. Her current practice encompasses sculpture/installation, encaustic, ceramic, and glass. Her research interests include post modern strategies of making in relation to themes of materiality, originality, transcultural flow of objects, and memory.
