In his solo exhibition, Gerben Mulder (b. 1972, Amsterdam) returns to a central motif in his practice. Mulder stages a dialogue between restraint and exuberance. Along an eight-meter wall, the Night Bloom paintings (2020) offer intimate black-and-white meditations on form and gesture, conceived during late nights in the gallery. Flanking canvases erupt in vibrant colour, bringing the flower into bold painterly bloom. Revisiting imagery that shaped his international career, Mulder underscores the fragility and endurance of this timeless subject while supporting emerging voices, aligning his pared-down works with Vincent Zanni’s debut exhibition.

Vincent Zanni (b. 1995, Geneva) approaches photography as a physical and temporal act, using cyanotype, oil printing, and camera obscura to create fragile, unique traces of light. His project The Last Impressions of Home transforms his family house—soon to be demolished—into a collaborator: each room became a pinhole camera, recording the passing world on light-sensitive paper. The resulting negatives, marked by creases and fingerprints, embody memory, presence, and loss. Related series, Blue Cedar and Saved Fragments, extend these themes through natural pigments and fading cyanotypes, reflecting on impermanence and the quiet traces spaces and objects leave behind.
