It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to our new exhibition by Christian Vind, who is visiting the gallery with his solo show, Synopsis – for a possible exhibition.

From the big photograph of a mask carved in a chestnut, maybe 70 years ago, a couple of pin eyes gaze out of the window in Holbergsgade on the passers-by.

Inside the doors of the gallery there is a point disappearing into a line, and a line turns into a roaring sea.

Thus Christian Vind begins his exhibition, which can be perceived as an archaeological test. Newly emerged things of clay, wood, pottery, canvas and acidic cardboard.

We meet a board made of unburned clay called Nullet oprindelse, a clip of an eye, a hypnotic order, a decision made at night and moss found in a dark drawer, something particulate enlarged, we imagine it’s a 2000 year old mushroom, as powerful as a forest.

A number of pin points. Temporary appearances, questionable references and suggestions. Fragmented, rudimentary and volatile.

Constantly opens and closes the eye.

Well met!
