We Already Have Enough

 

We Already Have Enough offers a quiet space of resistance and contemplation amid a world unravelling under the weight of unlimited production and consumption. Through intimate paintings and an immersive textile installation, the exhibition proposes making and thinking as inseparable acts. This new body of work arises from close attention to what is already here, drawing on traditional practices of icon-painting and weaving, as materials shaped with care and time. 

 

The space invites the viewer to dwell in it, treating slowness as a gesture of toward another possible world. Rejecting spectacle and post-consumerist aesthetics, Gleb turns to subtlety and attentiveness. Rooted in queer ideas around radical care, Gleb's practice reframes making art not as production, but as presence and repair where tradition becomes an essential part of transformation.

 

BIO:

Gļeb(s) Maiboroda (born 1994) is a multidisciplinary visual artist with a background in weaving, working across various mediums such as textiles, installation, performance, icon-painting, and experimental pedagogies. Gļeb(s) work is anchored in three interwoven principles: The Role of Tradition, The Body and The Possibility Of Pedagogy. Gļeb(s) explores how we can embrace the future without erasing and weaponising tradition. In the face of ever increasing polarisation and nationalism, they examine how cultural heritage–intended to preserve identity and foster connection–is often distorted to serve ideological agendas, turning a unifying force into one of division. Through material exploration and embodied practice, Gļeb(s) investigates ways to reclaim and reinterpret traditions and traditional knowledge, fostering dialogue and critical engagement.
