Andrea Sala / Mathieu Meijers – Above Touch

Mostra doppia personale.

Comunicato stampa

The exhibition Above Touch is a conversation between Andrea Sala (Como, 1976) and Mathieu Meijers (Stein, 1951). It shows how the work of these two artists, from different generations and countries, is surprisingly similar. This affinity is aptly described in a brief note written by Meijers explaining the exhibition title:

Touch initially refers to a way of realizing a work, to a specific craft, a technique, and a material. It refers to a sensibility in the use of the hands. In this sense, it is a close act.

Touch can also be a scan with the eyes. It can be an act from a distance, and by doing this it becomes an exploration of all the senses.

Above Touch refers to a poetic appeal to the viewer. To the awareness of the spiritual condition of the creative act, as we place the poetic in a higher realm.

A blind and intuitive touch of materialization that enlightens the understanding of life.
