    'Architects of Texture' gathers a visionary group of contemporary artists whose practices revel in the tactile poetry of material and the expressive resonance of surface and form.

    Through gestures of sculpting, layering, folding, carving and cutting, these artists conjure works that are not only seen but felt, inviting an intimate, multi-sensory encounter.

  • From the meditative paper topographies of Zhuang Hong Yi and Ilhwa Kim, to the liquid elegance of Zheng Lu’s steel sculptures, texture unfolds as a language, fluid, intuitive and profoundly emotive.

    Gordon Cheung, Maxim Wakultschik and Camille Hannah dissolve boundaries between disciplines, fusing digital precision with painterly nuance to craft richly dimensional, almost luminous surfaces.

    With bold sweeps of colour and movement, Lyès and Hannes Schauer approach abstraction as a vessel for feeling, where gesture, tone, and rhythm build emotional architectures.

    Vladinsky and Li Jie reimagine the human form in flux, capturing not just anatomy, but the fleeting essence of expression, vulnerability and joy.

    In the intricate bronzes of Gianfranco Meggiato and the contemplative forms of Voss, light and shadow play across voids and volumes, becoming meditations on presence and perception.

    These artists are architects of sensation, shaping visual worlds where tension and tenderness coexist and where material is elevated to metaphor.

    Architects of Texture is a tribute to the handmade and the heartfelt - where the mark, the gesture and the sculptural spirit lie at the soul of contemporary practice.
