An image, an identity, or a boundary?
The face is one of the first features we use to perceive and judge a person. It can reveal identity, personality, and history—but at the same time, it can also become the starting point for prejudices and societal attributions.
The exhibition brings together three artistic approaches that explore the human face. Using different techniques, materials, and individual perspectives, the artists create portraits that consciously break away from idealized notions of beauty. The focus is on authentic, characterful, and expressive faces.
The works on display raise not only the question of how we depict faces, but also how we view them. What do we recognize in a face? What do we read into it? And where does our own judgment begin?
Thus, the face becomes at once an image, an identity, and a boundary where our perceptions and prejudices become visible.
An exhibition about faces—and about how we see people.
