Exhibition of Chidy Wayne at the historic Male Castle, in Belgium.

Fading Faith is a piece madeout of 14 silkscreens on canvas of 100 x 150 cm/each. Inspired by the philosophical premise that the loss of higher references has led us to an individualistic and self-centered approach, this exhibition seeks to question and explore who we really are in the absence of those ancient guides. As faith in external structures and authoritarian figures dissolves, we emerge as the protagonists of our own narrative, carrying the responsibility and weight of defining ourselves.

His creations, characterised by a primitive and minimalist nature, draw inspiration from both ancestral traditions and the avant-garde art scene. Through quick and bold strokes, he tackles universal themes, exploring self-awareness and internal conflict in his two main series, EGO and PUGNA, which reflect his combative spirit.
