Kaja El Attar's pictures appear simple, they need no commentary. And they radiate harmony. But this harmony is not static, it hovers in an intermediate space of opposites, impossible to pin down or hold on to, only intuitively graspable. The geometric and the organic, the regular and the deviant, the rationally controlled and the uncontrollable coincidence, the narrative derived from colourful life and the clarity of cool abstraction, the use of colour and the retreat from it into the sharp contrast of black and white - for Attar, the contradiction is not resolved by a simple decision for the one and against the other.
