11.30am: Maraya Art Center: "Finer: A thread … in the swell of wandering words"

Inspired by a line from the poem written by the German-Romanian Paul Celan in 1955, as a response to experiencing the atrocities of World War II, Cristiana de Marchi’s exhibition takes the poem as a starting point to address both – creation and destruction and the many nuances of their interplay with each other.
