Geisterjungen - Ausstellungseröffnung - Galerie Kollaborativ

Welcome to our exhibition
'Geisterjungen' by Lucas Ngo, who
has been living in Berlin since 2020.
This exhibition is a retrospective of
his work from the past 2 years.
Inspired by mythology and tales, his
work explores obsession through
ink and oil painting, combining
transparency, mist, and blur in
his visual language. In the French
artist's aesthetic, portraits turn
into landscapes, acting as
repositories where memories fade
away, condense, and scatter. There
is a feeling of drifting that
emerges from contemplating these
evanescent images, the residue of
encounters that trigger affect and
emotions. While attempting to
erase, his portraiture paradoxically
opens up even more reminiscences.
From intimate memories, shifting
gaps emerge in space and time,
mingling presence and absence
around faraway figures that reveal
the many forms and landscapes held deep within.

Experience the enchantment of
'Geisterjungen' at Galerie
Kollaborativ, opening on 06.07.2023 at
7pm, as Ngo's artworks invite you
into a realm of metamorphosis and

hidden narratives.
