After its initial establishment as a non-profit off-space in Vienna, Galerie Mezzanin transitioned into a commercial gallery before relocating in Geneva in 2015, finding its place in the vibrant Quartier des Bains. The gallery curates approximately five exhibitions annually, with a dedicated emphasis on showcasing the works of international emerging artists and fostering the growth of their careers
Artist Lou Masduraud presents Skin to Skin, a recent body of work exploring the relationship between architecture, the body and the spaces we inhabit. Large copper wall panels, richly ornamented and pierced with lace-like patterns, oscillate between paintings, doors and thresholds, challenging the neutrality of the white cube. At the centre of the exhibition, Self Street transforms urban street furniture into a reflective object, blurring the boundaries between public and private space.
Through oxidation, touch and layered surfaces, Masduraud creates works that are physically responsive to the viewer, evoking the intimate relationship between clothing, architecture and the body. The exhibition considers how ornament, desire and the gaze can reshape our perception of space and our own embodied identities.
Opening: Thursday 17 September, 18:00
