‘The Year I Undid Myself’ | An Art Installation by Salma Adi

July 17 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

“The Year I Undid Myself” is a large-scale installation and immersive self-portrait in three dimensions. It marks a pivotal transformation in Adi’s life and art — a year of unraveling, letting go, and reawakening to her authenticity. This body of work is the physical residue of a profound inner shift: from painting illusion to inhabiting truth, from seeking approval to embracing vulnerability, from two-dimensional canvas to exposed structure.

This work invites vulnerability, challenging viewers to slow down and reflect on their own transitions — the versions of themselves they’ve outgrown, the masks they’ve shed, and the truths they’re learning to live. It’s an offering of honesty in a public space, where such depth is rarely given room.

Adi’s work is not just an artwork —it is a lived metaphor. In baring her own undoing, she asks us: What are we ready to let go of, in order to come closer to who we truly are?

The exhibition is open to the public for free from 10am to 4pm each day.
