Between the two exhibitions, Evi O. has created twenty-six paintings, each referencing a letter of the alphabet and inspired by singer Amanda Lear’s 1977 song Alphabet. In the song, Lear sings “Because time goes on and things are changing in my world, here is a new alphabet for the children of my generation. Of course, all these words have a meaning for me, but other generations might find a different mood to their world.” In her paintings, Evi O. reflects on her own observations and understanding of the world we inhabit in this A-Z compendium.
