In a world where the ephemeral often seems transient, the art of Aljoscha Farassat stands as a living testament to decay and transformation. His exhibition "Acid Years" is a kaleidoscope of loss and change, a reflection of the instability of our own memories.
In each piece, a process unfolds that is both controlled and left to freedom. Like an alchemist playing with time and matter, A.Farassat employs acids to dissolve his works layer by layer. In this dance of dissolution, motifs blur, getting lost in the fuzziness of memory, akin to fleeting images that slip away from our consciousness.
Contrasting with his canvas painting, where each brushstroke is meticulously controlled, "Acid Years" reveals a world full of creativity and freedom. Here, decay is not the end, but the beginning of a new artistic expression. It's a process in perpetual motion, a dynamic interplay between creation and destruction.
In this duality of control and release, A.Farassat finds the essence of his artistic soul. The "Acid Years" are thus not just an exhibition of his works, but a window into the soul of an artist who needs both elements – structure and chaos – to fully immerse himself in his art.
This exhibition is conducted in collaboration with Artivive, our augmented reality partner for art.
