MARUANI MERCIER - Von Wolfe, The Space in Between

MARUANI MERCIER is delighted to present The Space In Between, an exhibition of new paintings by British artist Von Wolfe, opening on 4 September at our Brussels Gallery. Portraying figures in restrained interiors or expansive landscapes, the works in The Space In Between evade attribution to a fixed space and time. The works are developed in collaboration with artificial intelligence, but not as mere tools of image generation. Instead, Von Wolfe treats the AI as an errant interlocutor - producing a flood of visual propositions, outliers, and uncanny hybrids. From this visual delirium, the artist isolates moments of particular psychic intensity, reworking them by hand in oil with classical precision. What results is a new kind of mythic realism – one that emerges from the machine’s subconscious and the artist’s instinctual logic.
