La(rt) Sauvage

Show & Culture

This exhibition brings together two artists whose works question our perception of space and our relationship to the surrounding structures. One through geometric paradoxes, the other through windowless homes: both invite us to transcend the boundaries of reality. Matiás Gárate, a geometric artist based in Fennange (Bettembourg) and a PhD holder in astrophysics, combines his passion for mathematics and art to create impossible shapes. His prints, drawings, and 3D sculptures explore a reality where the floor can become the ceiling, gravity flips at every corner, and infinite staircases defy our logic. Each work is an invitation to imagine a world where the laws of space are reinvented. Roberta Mistieri, a Brazilian visual artist residing in Berlin and with a background in theater, explores symbolic relationships between structures, houses, and shelters in her paintings. Her canvases depict windowless habitats devoid of identifiable details, traversed by a tension between hospitality and isolation. Through unexpected perspectives and intertwined elements, she constructs visions where strangeness and hospitality coexist. Between Illusion and Shelter offers a dialogue between two artistic approaches pushing the boundaries of the familiar to open new spaces of perception and reflection.
