Moving Parts

26.10.24–07.12.24

Madé van Krimpen is proud to present Moving Parts, the first solo exhibition by Majd Suliman at the gallery. This exhibition brings together kinetic sculptures, technology, and personal storytelling to explore Suliman's journey as an immigrant in Germany. Over the years, he has moved from painting to building machines, using technology to reflect on themes like displacement, identity, and adapting to a new culture.

The exhibition features a variety of sculptural installations, all connected by the theme of movement, both physical and symbolic. Visitors will experience works that blend beauty with struggle, mix humor with nostalgia, and explore the feeling of being out of place.

Majd Suliman (1991, Syria) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Düsseldorf. Majd graduated from Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where he studied under the mentorship of Gregor Schneider (2017-2024), and he also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from the University of Aleppo (2009-2013).
