Chris Ebejer’s sculptural journey continues in Valletta

An exhibition by Maltese sculptor Chris Ebejer is opening at the Oratory of the Immaculate within the Jesuit Church in Valletta, bringing together a major selection of works. 

Echoes of Now, presents sculptures in porcelain, terracotta, bronze and marble, spanning several years of Ebejer’s artistic practice.

Curated by art historian Paolo Giansiracusa, the exhibition aims to create what organisers describe as “a moment of reflection” amid modern social and cultural turbulence.

Each sculpture is displayed within "a specially conceived setting intended to complement both the delicacy of the works and the grandeur of the 17th-century church interior." 

Ebejer, regarded as one of Malta’s leading contemporary creative voices, draws heavily on Mediterranean artistic traditions and Maltese cultural heritage in his work.

The exhibition is supported by the Jesuit Church Foundation and is conceived as an anthology-style presentation tracing the evolution and continuity of the artist’s creative language over time.

Echoes of Now runs until 7 June at the Oratory of the Immaculate, Jesuit Church, Valletta, with entrance from Archbishop Street.

Opening hours are Monday to Friday from 9.30am to 7pm; Saturdays from 9.30am to 1.30pm and 5pm to 9pm; and Sundays from 9.30am to 1.30pm.
