胶囊威尼斯｜梅夫拉纳·利普：视界｜展览现场

“梅夫拉纳·利普（1989年出生于德国科隆，现工作生活于德国科隆）着迷于纯粹状态的自然世界，以及自然在人类想象中的演绎。于他而言，藤蔓的卷须、饱满的种荚、海百合摇曳的羽翼都是人类语言之外的符号，象征着复杂的情感和经历。符号隐喻和原始生物交融形成了利普作品中的有机体系，它们悄然跨越时空和意识的界限相互低语，呢喃着一切的起始。”

- Layla Leiman，《ArtMaze Magazine》，2019

Mevlana Lipp (b. 1989 Cologne, Germany. Lives and works in Cologne, Germany) is deeply fascinated by the natural world in its pure state, as well as in the space it occupies in the human imagination. To Lipp, the curling tendril of a vine, the rounded form of a seed pod or the gentle swaying feathers of a crinoid become signifiers of complex sets of emotions and experiences, communicated in a language outside of human linguistic codes. Part semiotic metaphor part primordial creatures from the deep, the organic organisms in Lipp's artwork reach out across time and consciousness to whisper about where all things began.
