Testimonial
"Over a week at Xenia already done, spending my time in this beautiful place addressing the many accumulated unresolveds - more reading, more writing, and some assemblage for a work in progress.
Eternally grateful for Bianca, Jaye, Lucy, Malissa and the Xenia team for being so so hospitable, gracious, encouraging, and welcoming. Xenia has left a defining impression for me, it has afforded me with the time and space to reflect, pause, and think in ways I haven’t been able to do as of late. Very Best, Moey"

About
Moey is a Libyan visual artist whose work explores the impact of colonialism. He creates art using steel, fabric, wax, and metal to build a visual language based on memory, myths, and knowledge. By playing with scale, he challenges viewers to think about their own roles in observing and participating in the artwork, questioning established power structures. In September 2024, Moey participated in the Veins of Dreams exhibition at art'otel London Hoxton in collaboration with ArtSect Gallery. His contributions to the panel discussion highlighted his engagement with interdisciplinary dialogues and his dedication to pushing creative boundaries.
Moey’s art aims to create a powerful visual experience that captivates and provokes thought. His pieces explore the human condition, especially the experience of those marginalized by colonialism, and interact with the past to challenge and redefine historical narratives. Through his use of materials, including their texture, weight, and sound, Moey encourages viewers to move from passive observation to active engagement with deeper truths. Moey's work continues to expand, solidifying his presence in the global contemporary art scene.
