(…) The pieces presented in Baahahal fuse all our gold into a form in a permanent, tangible search for an image. Like the calf, they are given as created by human hands and as self-made. Here, shapelessness is not a negation of form; and if it is, it is of a former form. Instead, it is an affirmation of form as a process of image creation. It is matter in the fulness of its autopoietic potency — it is an excess of matter overflowing out of itself, constituting itself as image and support simultaneously.

Baahahal proposes the veneration of a form that lives on the shapeless. It is a totem of unrecognizable bodies. The work itself establishes a space of search for a potential image. An image-that-has-been transformed into an image-to-be, or into an “art yet to come” already tested by the furiousness of its appearance’s impact.(…)
