Il-Kamra ta’ Fuq, now a renowned space for both emerging and established artists, will host Clint Calleja's latest exhibition, ‘Genesi 1011’, opening on Friday October 11th at 7.30pm.

This exhibition reinterprets the biblical story of the Tower of Babel from the Book of Genesis, where humanity, united by a single language, attempts to build a tower to reach heaven. Calleja draws a parallel to today’s universal language – binary code, the backbone of our digital age. Through his work, he questions whether this modern language fosters greater connection or fuels deeper divisions.

The exhibition features structures made of porcelain and copper, symbolising the tension between modernity and antiquity, with binary-etched translations of the biblical text. This duality invites viewers to reflect on the evolving nature of communication and its impact on society in the modern world.

Calleja, a contemporary artist known for his exploration of identity, memory, and cultural heritage, follows up his autobiographical exhibition ‘Anamnesis’ with ‘Genesi 1011’. His works frequently engage with personal and societal issues, and this latest exhibition is created to provoke thought on the ways in which technology and humanity intersect.

Curated by Melanie Erixon, ‘Genesi 1011’ will be on display from October 11th to November 3rd.
