Andro Wekua — Calling Over
Andro Wekua

Calling Over

A fragmented dreamlike composition, Wekua layers collage elements with felt pen and ballpoint pen markings over a photographic base, creating a tension between the documentary and the imagined. The work reflects Wekua's signature preoccupation with memory, displacement, and psychological unease, as raw mark-making disrupts and rewrites the photographic surface. Gestural lines and cut forms converge to evoke a figure or presence caught in the act of summoning or being summoned, suspended between absence and contact.
