The Sum Of All Parts: Two artists show at Ubuntu Art Gallery
(Artdaily.org)

“The Sum Of All Parts” is a “dialogue” between the works of two artists; Adel Haroun , a ceramicist, and Maie Yanni, a multi-disciplinary artist whose practice straddles collage, artists books and crochet lacework . The exhibition showcases works in all the above disciplines and highlights what unifies both artists visual language, their conceptual approach and how they go about their creative process while spurring the conversation, yet again, about craft versus fine art. Mindfully executed to the last detail, nothing is left to chance in a long and laborious process of “fragmentation” and “reconstruction”; both artists work from first principles preparing their own pigments and substrates all the way to the reconstituted final work. Both Haroun and Yanni are based in Cairo, a city rich in history, heritage and ornament that bears in its meshwork and physiognomy
