FRISSON
-FRIEZE-FRIZZ-FRYZ-FRIZZANTE-FREESTYLE-FREES-FRIES-FRIEZEON-FREEZE!-FRISSON- Frieze as composition, as movement, traverse, from point A to B, from left to right, or the other way around, as rhythm, as history, as narrative. In climbing, a horizontal movement at a certain height; in architecture, an ornamental band, but somewhere up there, above our heads, out of reach, an ornament along the […]
Roamersss
While moving fluidly between reality and speculation, an uncanny atmosphere permeates Matei’s drawings, where the surrealism depicted feels increasingly immediate and holds the potential to become plausible within the conditions of the (global ongoing) present. The artist revisits heard or imagined stories, blending them with surprising twists in an almost tongue-in-cheek manner. Roamers operates as […]
Trip Slip Hazard
One man’s trash is another man’s treasure Every day, the world as we know it confronts us with an endless array of choices. Consumption shapes the flow of our lives, allowing us to move freely through a vast field of objects, relationships, experiences and identities. Objects multiply around us more quickly than we can manage, […]
Chromos
Markus Wiegandt Chromatic Explorations / Expeditions in Form and Color Color or form? A question that arises in the process of visual artistic creation. Usually, there are good reasons to favor one of these two approaches. In the works of Myriam Mayer, however, they are held in balance. Color and form are given equal, and […]
Extended Leave
Sometimes it is necessary to simply step away. Today, everything feels urgent, as we bear witness to the world’s absurdities and injustices. As a gallerist and writer, I personally feel a keen obligation to speak out at every turn. And yet, I also know that burnout is real — and that retreat, reflection, and wonder […]

Black Mirror The evening darkness, devouring window reflections, shop windows, and eventually entire houses, transforms the street with its corridors and nooks into a seamless landscape without clear boundaries. Clinging to familiar order and structure—any frame—becomes uncomfortable. The disappearance of visible borders does not guarantee an external perimeter elsewhere. A faint light slices through the […]
Melting Ice
Melting Ice Melting (thinking together) “There is no outside from which to observe the world; we are always already inside it, implicated in it, breathing the same air as the things we try to understand.” — Bruno Latour, Where Am I? After a lifetime devoted to thinking about the world, Bruno Latour asked himself the […]

GLAZE
Paulina Semkowicz uses the medium of monumental painting to create transitional, narrative – though abstract – spaces in which absence or presence becomes crucial to the viewer’s experience. Inspired by her many years of experience in theatrical painting, she transforms backgrounds into active stages for contingency, playing with themes that remain elusive yet deeply resonant. […]
