Join Impossible Currency in celebrating the North American debut of Polish artist Dominika Hofman aptly named A Pervading Wonder on Friday, June 20 at 6:30pm.
In A Pervading Wonder, Dominika Hofman explores the interplay of light and shadow to uncover the quiet beauty within muted, often overlooked tones. Inspired by shells and mother-of-pearl, traditionally known for their brilliance, she shifts focus to subtle shimmers subdued by shadow – mirroring the complexity of life beyond its brightest moments. The title is deliberately paradoxical; though the works appear dark at first glance, they reveal a hidden spectrum of color and emotion. Drawing on the rich symbolism of shells and pearls, Hofman uses these forms as poetic metaphors to express inner depth, transformation, and the quiet strength found in the ordinary.
