Works by Noah Umur Kanber and Ovartaci meet in a joint exploration of identity, gender, metamorphosis and life outside society's fixed categories. Noah Umur Kanber has created 56 dolls – one for each year Ovartaci was hospitalised. Together with ceramics, copper etchings and works on paper, they mirror Ovartaci's mythological universe in a new formal language.
