Almine Rech
Farah Atassi (Brussels, 1981) The Shadow, 2026 Oil on canvas 195.3 x 114.3 cm Signed and dated on the back Provenance: the artist's studio Exhibitions: Farah Atassi, 'Metamorphosis', 26 June-31 July 2026, Almine Rech New York 'The Shadow' comes from a recent body of work in which Farah Atassi explored themes of metamorphosis and freedom. The central figure is a chimeric half woman-half flower that appears to flourish before our very eyes. Daphne - the nymph turned into a laurel tree to escape the god Apollo - comes to mind, a representation of transformation and transcendence. In 'The Shadow' the flower woman is organic, yet sculptural, retaining a distinct humanity that the artist has simplified, symbolised. While the composition is dreamlike and ethereal, a bold shadow brings a touch of realism, anchoring the twisting form to the pictorial plane. This work is a painting within a painting, a formal choice that allows Atassi to contrast two distinct realms while also interrogating the metamorphic potential of art. Notes of Magritte’s uncanny, atmospheric beauty emerge as the flower woman in 'The Shadow' is captured in the act of liberating herself from a canvas, striking out into the rosy dawn.
