In a world overwhelmed by stimuli, simplicity becomes an act of resistance, leading us back to essential truths.
About
In a world often overwhelmed by a flood of stimuli and meanings, simplicity becomes a form of resistance. It draws us back to essentials—those fundamental elements that, in their clarity, reveal a deeper truth. The paintings and sculptures in this exhibition do more than represent simple forms or objects; they invite us to rediscover the hidden beauty and significance of everyday life. These works remind us that everything, however seemingly insignificant, is part of a broader, intricate network of relationships.
The exhibition’s design, anchored around tubular structures, serves as a metaphor for these connections. The tubes act as conduits and supports—channels of energy and meaning—illustrating the idea that nothing exists in isolation. Each artwork participates in a silent dialogue with the others, creating a fluid, continuous conversation.
Here, simplicity becomes a bridge to understanding the fundamental connections that shape our existence. By rediscovering these ties, we begin to see the world not as a collection of isolated entities but as a living network of interdependent relationships. This perspective urges us to rethink our place within that network, reflecting on how our actions, thoughts, and creations intertwine with the broader, more meaningful fabric of life.
If it’s easy for you, it’s easy for me invites us to contemplate simplicity and recognize, in the humblest gestures and simplest forms, the deep-rooted connections that define our shared humanity.
Jérémy Bobel (Brussels/Paris): An interdisciplinary artist exploring social paradoxes, Bobel’s work examines the tension between personal narratives and collective experiences. He uses elements of fakery and common references like Z-series films and cartoons to question the interplay between reality and dreams.
Tommy Lhomme: Lhomme's work navigates the boundary between figuration and abstraction. His exploration of landscapes, reimagined through digital drawings and various mediums like painting and tufting, invites viewers to see beyond conventional depictions and rediscover everyday elements.
Jonathan Djob Nkondo (Paris): An artist, animator, and filmmaker, Nkondo’s introspective work spans illustration, animation, and comics. With a limited color palette and a dreamlike aesthetic, his pieces explore narrative movement and the complexity of human experience.
Huey Ruckus (Rejjie Snow): A musician and visual artist, Ruckus translates his everyday life into vivid, layered paintings. His works blend 1990s cartoon-inspired imagery with emotional expression, using bold colors and dynamic gestures to explore personal and societal narratives.
