Where Meaning Begins

RANOR Gallery opens its doors with a group exhibition gathering the voices of its founding roster — David Farsi, Nevine Farghaly, Pierre Fortin, Randa Hijazi, and Zeena Mustafa Sileem — around a single question: where does meaning begin?

Across painting, sculpture, and works on paper, the exhibition brings together practices that share one conviction: that art is not only seen but thought. From David Farsi's dreamlike polyptychs to Nevine Farghaly's figurative metalwork, Pierre Fortin's "Cognitive Fusionism," Randa Hijazi's Organic Surrealism, and Zeena Mustafa Sileem's symbolic interior worlds, each artist gives form to what language cannot.
