Zoe Koke @ Alice Amati Gallery

In The Serpent’s Tail, artists Rike Droescher and Zoe Koke draw on ancient references, represented by the Ouroboros, an archetypal symbol of a serpent eating its own tail. Traced back to Ancient Egypt, the symbol cycled between various spiritual and mythological traditions, forging an ubiquitous meaning of perpetuity.

By questioning linear narratives, the exhibition is a collection of overlapping memories and experiences, doubts and urges. The artists approach the work with a fractal glance on humanity’s technological achievements, as well as on its fragility.
