One wonders, in fact, whether it might not be wiser to exhibit the three winners together to overcome this challenge? While some previous winners, such as Khadija El Abyad and Kamil Bouzoubaa-Grivel, have at times opted for mediums or materials with which they were not always familiar\u2014such as sculpture or ceramics\u2014all of them have experimented, with varying degrees of success, with the flexible boundaries of installation art.<\/p><p>Aymane El Gadi chooses to transform the exhibition space into a classroom and a playground through works that evoke both playgrounds and the processes of socialization. A bench covered in nails and school uniforms in \u201cgendered\u201d colors\u2014reproduced in tricolor catalogs\u2014remind us, not without a touch of naivety, that school is a place of power and control over individuals, just like the military or prison.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-769df23 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"769df23\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e302f43 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e302f43\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1777\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-22272\" alt=\"Aymane El Gadi, \u201cI Want to Be\u201d series, 2026, graphite on paper, 56 x 40 cm\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-scaled.jpg 1777w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-208x300.jpg 208w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-711x1024.jpg 711w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-768x1107.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-1066x1536.jpg 1066w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-1421x2048.jpg 1421w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-024-300x432.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1777px) 100vw, 1777px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Aymane El Gadi, \u201cI Want to Be\u201d series,\n2026, graphite on paper, 56 x 40 cm<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67b4d46 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"67b4d46\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-50a50bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"50a50bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>One of the exhibition\u2019s successes is its ability to create a tension between the rigidity of rules and the imagination inherent in children\u2019s games. Twenty-four sheets of paper are hand-gridded, suggesting a punitive principle of repetition whose educational virtues\u2014which sanctify memorization\u2014are here undermined. Alongside them are drawings whose lines were drawn randomly by a simple spinning top\u2014a distant echo of Pollock\u2019s <i>drippings<\/i>\u2014express the joy of play and the transgression of rules.  <\/p><p>We expected Aymane El Gadi to focus on graphite pencil drawings\u2014a medium he has already mastered with virtuosity and which features several standout works in the exhibition. Instead, the artist chose to approach this medium from the perspective of reflexivity, notably by depicting a child in close-up as he contemplates the colors of a set of marbles. Alongside these are pixelated drawings and others that magnify undulating lines, highlighting the importance of perception. Aymane El Gadi does not impose a condescending gaze upon us, but he places at the center of his approach the very question of representation and vision\u2014with a certain humility.<\/p><p>He is only at the start of his career: let\u2019s bet that the game is far from over!<\/p><p><b>Exhibition \u201cInd\u00e9l\u00e9bile\u201d by Aymane El Gadi, curated by Farah Maakel, Espace Artorium, TGCC Foundation, Casablanca, through December 19, 2026<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4abf34 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b4abf34\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-849b570 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"849b570\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1835\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-22273\" alt=\"Aymane El Gadi, Trace, 2024, Ink on paper, 50 x 65 cm\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-1024x734.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-768x551.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-1536x1101.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.diptykmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/ARTORIUMxAYMAN-008-2048x1468.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Aymane El Gadi, <i>Trace<\/i>, 2024, ink on paper, 50 x 65 cm<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For his first solo exhibition, \u201cInd\u00e9l\u00e9bile,\u201d the 2025 winner of the Mustaqbal Prize offers an interactive journey into the world of childhood, exploring the balance between the freedom of play and the relentless process of socialization.
