Femme In The End Times

This is the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. In conjunction with the exhibition, Bruno David Gallery will publish a catalogue of the artist’s work with an in-depth exhibition history and bibliography.

The work in “Femme In The End Times” exhibition continues to ask questions about gender-based oppression through envisioning fractured, pink-drenched parallel worlds where characters confront personal and collective agency. In these new additions to her Pink Apocalypse series, she delves further into the rituals, relationships, and acts of care that emerge as survival strategies when structures crumble. These paintings juxtapose moments of vigilance, intimacy, and transformation to question how we navigate our tenuous present

Mužina says “This work emerged from the heightened urge to nurture community and build sanctuary—a "safe house"— as a queer person, woman, and survivor amidst looming societal and political instability going into 2025 in the United States. Throughout the series, acts of care, rebellion, and change emerge as vital survival strategies - even as motives and outcomes remain ambiguous. Rituals of connection—healing gestures, exchanges of knowledge, and moments of trust—become sources of empowerment and solidarity when external systems fail and environments collapse. Vivid color reinforces the emotional intensity of these imaginings. The dense patterns and shifting planes in my compositions echo the cyclical nature of fear, resilience, and preparation, evoking the emotional and physical precarity felt by marginalized individuals facing layered and ongoing adversity.”
