MYSTIKA
16.03.2023 to 12.05.2023 · Maja Hürst / TIKA
An intimate symbolic world
Mystika gathers Maja Hürst’s paintings into a quiet but charged exhibition built from signs, animals, eyes, knots and recurring forms. The images feel ancient and contemporary at once, with a graphic economy that gives each symbol strong presence.
Inside the gallery, those works create a concentrated atmosphere. The exhibition moves between mural scale confidence and smaller painted surfaces where rhythm, texture and composition stay fully visible.
Animals, geometry and omen like forms
The added scans make the symbolic grammar of the show even clearer. A braided snake becomes a closed structure around an eye, while the paired bird and swan reduce the image to balance, curve, contrast and watchfulness.
These paintings sit naturally beside the denser figurative works already shown in the exhibition. Together they reveal how Hürst can shift from narrative suggestion to near emblematic clarity without losing intensity.
A clean hanging with strong atmosphere
Mystika uses space with restraint. Room views, the poster and opening images show how the exhibition holds together through pacing, contrast and the relation between singular works and the surrounding architecture.
The result is calm but memorable: an exhibition where every image carries weight, and where symbolic painting becomes spatial experience.
