Join Brigade Gallery for an evening of art with two distinct solo presentations on view this May.
The walkthrough, led by Gallery Director Karen Foss Becker, begins in the main gallery with the work of Martin Aagaard Hansen (b. 1988, Denmark). His work exists at the point of tension between abstraction and figuration, apparition and void. Approaching painting as an excavation, Aagaard Hansen unfolds his work through a continuous cycle of accumulation and erosion: layers of paint are built up only to be scraped back, punctured, and reworked in a physical negotiation with the surface. In this friction, the painting becomes a site to be entered where fragments, and traces hint at something concealed beneath.
Continuing to the first floor, we will explore Ghazaal Nasiri’s debut solo exhibition in Denmark. Nasiri (b. 1999, Shiraz, Iran) explores the intersections of cultural memory, psychological trauma, and the experience of living in the diaspora. Her practice is a visceral excavation, employing ancient Persian myths as a framework to navigate the complexities of identity, silence, and Angst.
