Under a night-black sky, glistening streets – a chessboard illuminated by floodlights – flea market stalls in the pale reflection of an invisible light source: Nassim L’Ghoul’s works envelop us in the gentle, chilling waves of a 3D-modelled environment, charged by personal memories, yet completely stripped of its concrete colours and textures. We are theatrically directed through sections of surreal landscapes as if by a relentless spotlight. The bare surfaces brush against us. Their lack of haptics characterizes the atmosphere of a transitional zone of intersubjectively communicable and yet elusive experiences. The abstracted spaces open and close, thereby acting as their own counterparts.
