About the event
“Donkey: Symbol, Myth, Human”
The figure of the donkey has accompanied humanity for thousands of years — from ancient myths and sacred narratives to contemporary popular culture. Often perceived as a simple, “earthbound” creature, the donkey carries far more in its symbolic meaning: resilience, patience, humility, strength, wisdom, and, at the same time, profound vulnerability.
The exhibition “Donkey: Symbol, Myth, Human” reveals the multilayered nature of this image. In the artist’s works, the donkey becomes a mirror of the human being — a creature that bears the weight of existence, navigating between the spiritual and the mundane, the humorous and the tragic, the lofty and the everyday.
The project weaves together:
Symbol — as a visual sign and a primordial code.
Myth — as a cultural landscape where the donkey appears as hero, companion, and guide.
