Description

Discover Elja Maria's solo exhibition in Wellington, a profound exploration of life's transient beauty. Symbolism in her iconic peonies, cherry blossoms, and animals aligns with the essential aspects of street art and graffiti. Highlights include No Fight, No Glory, depicting a classic Japanese character with spray cans, and A Dedication to My Spiritual Practice, a small painting of a spray can.

A 15-minute documentary about the graffiti scene in Java adds depth to the collection, sharing lessons from her global travels. This exhibition invites art lovers, creatives, and collectors to reflect on impermanence and engage in meaningful conversations about life's fleeting moments.
