Ghizlane Agzenaï at Art Dubai: A Journey Through Geometry, Emotion, and Light

Moroccan visual artist Ghizlane Agzenaï continues to push the boundaries of contemporary art with her latest exhibition, Unda Aeterna (Latin for “eternal wave”), presented at Art Dubai. Known for her signature totemic works that fuse geometric abstraction with vibrant color palettes, Agzenaï offers an immersive experience that transcends conventional artistic encounters.

Visual Poetry in Motion

With Unda Aeterna, Agzenaï explores the interplay between form and emotion, inviting viewers into a multidimensional universe where every curve and line carries energetic resonance. Her visual language blends abstract geometry with a cosmic harmony, evoking a sense of serenity and movement. Created on diverse media—canvas, wood, neon—her works function as portals, allowing a dialogue between the physical and metaphysical realms.

Her totems, central to her artistic vocabulary, act as living symbols of collective energy and spiritual upliftment. Radiating positive vibrations, these art pieces offer not only aesthetic pleasure but also emotional grounding. They invite introspection while encouraging connection and interaction, breaking the wall between observer and artwork.

From Urban Walls to International Art Fairs

Ghizlane Agzenaï has left her mark on urban landscapes across the globe, from monumental murals in Vienna, Paris, Barcelona, and Rabat to cutting-edge installations showcased in renowned art fairs. Her works have been featured by institutions such as the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rabat, and she has participated in festivals including Jidar and Calle Libre.

Agzenaï’s collaboration with luxury house Guerlain further demonstrates the versatility of her vision. She designed a unique bottle cap for Guerlain’s Oud collection and reimagined the visual identity of the brand’s boutiques worldwide. Her ability to navigate between fine art, design, and commercial aesthetics underscores the strength and adaptability of her creative identity.

Artistic Evolution and Technological Dialogue

Constantly in search of new dimensions, Agzenaï has also embraced modular sculpture, most notably during her residency with contemporary artist Felipe Pantone. This experimentation expanded her creative arsenal, confirming her commitment to blending traditional craftsmanship with innovative technology. In her evolving work, curves now play a more prominent role, softening rigid structures and allowing energy to circulate more fluidly—an embodiment of the eternal wave theme in Unda Aeterna.

The Gallery Behind the Artist: La Galerie 38

A long-standing partner in Agzenaï’s journey, La Galerie 38 is instrumental in promoting her work on both local and international stages. With spaces in Casablanca and Marrakech, the gallery has consistently championed contemporary artists from Morocco and beyond. It has featured Agzenaï in multiple solo and group exhibitions, including notable shows like Dimension 2112: Genesis and Totem. In 2025, the gallery presents her latest collection centered around curves and spatial harmony at Art Dubai.

Founded in 2010 in Casablanca by Fihr Kettani and Mohammed Chaoui El Faiz, La Galerie 38 plays a key role in Morocco’s contemporary art scene. It supports established and emerging talents, while also engaging with global audiences through prestigious fairs such as 1-54 Marrakech and Paris, Kunstrai Art Amsterdam, and Moderne Art Fair.

A Universal Message in Vivid Color

At the heart of Ghizlane Agzenaï’s work lies a mission: to connect people across cultures through visual rhythm and color. Her totems are not just visual statements but vessels of shared energy—emblems of joy, vitality, and spiritual resilience. Whether painted on a gallery wall or installed in a public square, each piece carries a message of collective unity and inner reflection.

In Unda Aeterna, Agzenaï invites us to become active participants in a visual symphony, where each line is a note and every hue a vibration. In doing so, she not only redefines the viewer’s experience of art but also reaffirms her place as one of the leading figures of contemporary Moroccan art.
