Ser Serpas

Ser Serpas (* 1995) is passionate about corporeal and poetic forms of expression, which she explores as both a painter and sculptor. In her largest solo exhibition to date in Switzerland, she presents the multiplicity of her aesthetic vocabulary and examines the boundaries between body, time, and the ephemeral images that lie in between. At Kunsthalle Basel, she brings together sculpture, painting, and performance art, with a particular focus on her collaboration with the Margo Korableva Performance Theatre from Tbilisi. In her artistic practice, both Serpas and the theater company take existing elements, deconstruct them, and imbue them with new, reimagined meanings. This artistic synergy allows Serpas to reenact selected performances from the theater’s repertoire, creating a dynamic, engaging dialogue between performance art and her sculptures.
