2024.03.15 – 2024.04.20 // In “Nightingale’s Stories”, Berlin-based artist XOOOOX, known for his delicately developed stencils of mysterious women, skillfully creates a poetic dialogue between his iconic aesthetics and state-of-the-art technology. Using new techniques, XOOOOX develops his characters that not only create an avant-garde fusion, but also express the artist’s profound exploration of the intersection of technology, zeitgeist and traditional art, challenging the viewer’s viewing habits.
Through the congenial, almost symbiotic fusion of the pigments and their artistic reworkings, “Nightingale’s Stories” symbolizes the coherent evolution of XOOOOX’s poetic narrative of beauty and transience. The subtle use of spray paint creates an ephemeral atmosphere that emphasizes the importance of finiteness, highlighting the value of the moment.
