Reading Faces​ is an exhibition of paintings and sculpture. The meaning of a word can be lost when it is translated into another language. Unlike words, emotions are universally understood. The interpretation of an emotion is not hindered by culture or language; it is instinctual. ​READING FACES: WORKS BY RIDIKKULUZ demonstrates the power that facial expressions have to communicate unspoken emotions through visual clues.

Happiness, sadness, fear, anger, trust, distrust, surprise, and anticipation are the eight basic emotions. RIDIKKULUZ’s ​body of figurative works display the complexity of these emotions and the feelings they can evoke which are often unexplainable with words.
