Rita Alaoui opens doors to mysterious vegetal worlds where traces of humanity seem to have vanished. She immerses us in a timeless realm populated by monumental imaginary plants. Are they dancing? Are they totems? Are they part of a magical forest? Rita’s dual perspective—of contemplation and fascination—extracts the ineffable essence of things.

Mathias Bensimon explores light and matter as presence-absence in an ever-expanding universe. His works are imaginary portraits of light, born of intuition. He creates a serene, intimate atmosphere that borders on meditation. His colors serve as the tangible manifestation of emotions and the painter’s attentive engagement with his surroundings.

Solène Kerlo, meanwhile, invokes ancient narratives and the symbols of vanished civilizations through a raw, primal style where unprocessed pigment clashes powerfully with oil paint. The result is a chant from elsewhere, a psalmody that awakens the senses and conveys a universal language of Life and Death. The traces she creates rise like primitive ritual signs, recalling the origins of Art itself.

In her analog photography series titled “Epilogue”, Astrid Staes presents the final echo before silence. “Epilogue” captures a motionless, suspended life. These photographs are nuptials of ashes, where objects become relics—a jackhammer, a cup, an empty chair. Someone has departed. This series reflects an endpoint, the moment silence settles after a long story. A faint mist lingers, waiting to dissipate before a new prologue begins.
