Elena Bulycheva is presenting new works on the occasion of the exhibition When Paintings Become Trees. The starting point consists of a key concept for Bulycheva’s artistic practice: the notion of care, which she has explored from the perspective of motherhood—think of exploring female labor and household care by elevating these mundane activities with art—but also care in relation to womanhood in general. With tree-shaped sculptural canvases and a participatory project, Bulycheva aims to extend care to a global and ecological level. By opting to use an environmental perspective, Bulycheva catapults her focus on care from the domestic to the public. Through a personal exploration encompassing memory, landscape, and social action, Bulycheva not only invites but also encourages visitors to engage with both the intimate and collective experiences of environmental care.
