Konrad Fischer Galerie

David Douard

Info: Open and close your eyes. Wakes is the place in between, half-awake, half-asleep. A threshold where two psychic spaces communicate. Where hallucination spills over into the world, and where the world, in turn, contaminates hallucination. For his third exhibition at Konrad Fischer Galerie, David Douard articulates a suspended universe in which the emblematic elements of his practice unfold. Floral contaminations, masks, and poems come together around an intimate energy. Raw materials, wood, aluminium, glass, accommodate a surprisingly harmonious movement. A proliferation of forms spreads a conversation throughout the space. The sculptures, onto which aluminium masks and glass orbs are attached, become entwined with softly metallic drawings. An echo emerges and finds a way into the gestures of the paintings. (…)
