These creatures b elong to the world of Uncanny\, they bring to life scary stories from our childhood\, dark fairy tales\, the whispers from the past that are echoing in our ears.  \; In my practice I work with mythology\, religion and Uncanny. For this body of work I am focusing on exploration of the wolf as a symbol in mythology. While myths and legends of many civilizations use various animals for allegorical representation of various notions\, wolves seem to be one of the most popular and the most controversial creatures. On one hand they were seen as evil predators\, but on the other hand they were portrayed as faithful companions that were acting as interconnectors between the world of spirits and the world of living. Depicting wolves in my work\, I am avoiding realistic representation focusing rather on the es sence of these majestic creatures and the enigma it contains. Using symbo lism and narration to touch on the topics of life\, death and divinity. Hu manity has been interested in these topics for many centuries\, using myth ology as instruments to explain the world around us\, to connect the mater ial and immaterial\, to give body\, flesh to something airy. While referri ng to folklore and ethnography\, I give myself the liberty to reinterpret and adapt the symbols and narrations\, trying to mix the stories from the distant past with the present reality\, creating the Uncanny mix between t he child-like rendered imagery and the darker meaning they bear.\n\nCONTAC T: art@union.wisc.edu\n\nURL: https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities /event-calendar/event/exhibition-aleksandra-panics-wolves-snakes-and-spiri ts/12156 LOCATION:Main Gallery\, 2nd floor\, Memorial Union SUMMARY:Exhibition: Aleksandra Panic's "Wolves\, Snakes and Spirits" URL;VALUE=URI:https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/e vent/exhibition-aleksandra-panics-wolves-snakes-and-spirits/12156 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=America/Chicago:20260914T235844 UID:181354@calendar.wisc.edu DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20230507T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20230507T160000 DESCRIPTION:Pieced Together: Perspectives in Textiles and Fashion Design is a student-curated exhibition featuring current work by undergraduates pur suing textile and fashion design degrees.
