A SOFT GREEN GLOW IN THE EVENING RED
Maria Appleton, Ann Veronica Janssens
BEIGE, Brussels
2024
A soft green glow in the evening red brings together works that, by means of weaves and light, colours and transparencies, aim at revealing invisible things. The exhibition, guest curated by Yann Chateigné Tytelman, was conceived as a conversation between two artists from different backgrounds: Lisbon-based Maria Appleton, an emerging figure of the Portuguese art map and a major artist and Belgian pivotal character Ann Veronica Janssens. The former mainly uses textile, layers of transparencies and opaqueness, dyeing, printing, superimpositions, in order to generate sensorial vibrations, optical and bodily experiences. The latter, composing with space and light, using glass, projections, translucid and filtering substances, is achieving as many subtle, spectacular, and unsettling effects of coloured impregnation and spatial dissolution.
