In Miryam Haddad’s painting, the multiplicity of sensory interactions unsettles us and offers no promise of comfort. We hallucinate—this almost troubling materiality tested by figures that haunt it, these resemblances altered by gestures that write across the surface without spelling it out. The conflicts of the real world, and those that live within us, rise again on the ground of painting. It pulls us free from the automatisms of memory and emotion, eyes wide open. A war rages against me and within me… Stranger.
