KATHARINA ARNDT | PETER DOYLE | JEREMYVILLE | DANNI PANTEL, Pelle

26 January - 10 March 2023

Galleria Patricia Armocida is pleased to present “PELLE”, the group exhibition with works by Katharina Arndt, Peter Doyle, Jeremyville, and Danni Pantel.

 

“PELLE” is a reflection on the instinctive force of feeling, on emotional revelation and the externalization process.

 

In this group exhibition, “PELLE” is conveyed through infinite means of expression and interpretation: the boundary between that which is superficial and that which is profound, the covering that is exposed and protects, the place where contact and attachment take place, the symbol of humankind’s physical and emotional relationships.

 

The narratives of the four artists intersect with recurring themes but are also in contrast with each other.

 

In Danni Pantel’s work, the canvas comes to life through a spontaneous-gestural process where the interplay of form, color, space and the relationship of these elements are always closely linked to inner life, bringing a hidden and confused depth to the surface. As the viewer nears the work, the structure becomes more visible through the materiality of the forms and lines which, from a distance, seem smooth and defined. Her work invites us into this space of tension between apparent perfection and vulnerability in opening up to introspection.

 

Peter Doyle’s art is also personal and intimate, but moves in the oppose direction: from the surface to the depths, delving into the frame of mind of the subjects, resulting in a brutally honest perspective.

 

His intense and non-naturalistic canvases depict that which lies beneath the surface. He excavates a thought or feeling and preserves it via his unorthodox renderings of otherwise mundane moments.

 

Hence, skin becomes the perimeter of identity in relation to others, each in the solitude of their own intimacy, like separate and mute islands.

 

Katharina Arndt’s fast and colorful paintings ironize the contemporary mass consumerist esthetic of a decadent, abundant society in picturing everyday life in the digital age.
 

“The shaved body belongs to the topic of a smooth surface, without any resistance, like a conformist mind”, declares the artist, a metaphor for eternal youth, as artificial, uncritical, superficial, and conformist. Arndt transposes this idea to the material and content of her work. She uses artificial mediums such as PVC film and Plexiglas with glossy acrylic paint. Fast, reduced, almost childlike, motifs and medium function as an artistic mirror of the quantity and speed of perceived scenes. Her work presents the psychodrama of a positivist consumer society that tries to escape its own mortality.

 

As for Jeremyville’s works, the artistic act seems to resonate in a collective journey that concludes with the codification of a common language through universal iconography made up of symbols, figures, and graphic signs. His mute comic stories depict the politics of emotions, our relationship with nature and with each other. Nature and cities are the settings for his short, snappy stories that often have environmental undertones. His cartoons address the human condition in all of its layers and contradictions. They are representations of states of minds and emotions illustrated through circular narratives with open endings and storylines without endings.

Peter Doyle

Peter Doyle (1992, Dublin) is a self-taught artist who lives and works in Paris. His paintings, which depict characters in a wide array of spontaneous scenes of everyday life, capture the viewer’s attention through an inner charm and mystery. His work is inspired by observation of the world around him and he reinterprets it with his own imagination and sensitivity. The artist explores the inner landscapes of his subjects in moments of pause and idleness, transforming a banal scene into a moment of more profound revelation that reverberates differently in every viewer.
