Marton Nemes: I Am The Energy I Desire To Attract at Double Q Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Exuberant colours, cadent sounds and dazzling lights manifest as an immersive environment. Retaining only the placebo of planarity, striking neon tones, gestural brush strokes and layered surfaces combine into mixed-media compositions. These deconstructed picture planes transcend the objecthood of artworks with the simplest of gestures: visible and audible wavelengths embrace the paintings, reverberate in unison and collide in the spectatorial perception. Citing his exhibition Techno Zen at the 60th Venice Biennale, Nemes continues to dissect sound frequencies into low, mid and high ranges, while dividing light information from the visible spectrum into three interwoven realms. Nemes, fascinated by pink not existing on the visible spectrum but resulting from the brain mixing colours, indirectly points to the subjective nature of perception and the brain’s role in constructing realities, highlighting reciprocity between physical phenomena and cognitive interpretation. Inspired by techno music and rave culture, Nemes explores sensory experiences through art.
