커스틴 브랏쉬

MƎTA

January 22 — April 26, 2025

Brussels

Kerstin Brätsch presents MƎTA, an exhibition of new paintings and wallpapers for her inaugural exhibition at Gladstone in Brussels. Expanding upon her Psychics and Para Psychics project from 2022, Brätsch’s abstract compositions employ her painterly practice to probe the body’s psychological, psychical, and social expressions. Appearing to be in a constant state of flux, the works possess their own internal metabolism, transcending a material existence to delve into infinite possibilities of interpretation.


“The antonym of representation is integration.
The resuscitation of representation is integration.
The familiarization of representation is integration.
The life of representation is integration.

In Brussels, a good one hundred years ago, artists of symbolist conviction took integration out of their own times. With no intention of representing the shapes of their present, their art was taking themselves out of it. Integrating away. This was never meant to be obscure. It was destined to be popular.”
