Alejandra Venegas, Timicho; Dürst Britt & Mayhew, The Hague

Exhibitions 1 Minute

Dürst Britt & Mayhew surprises with the works of a Mexican artist, Alejandra Venegas (1986) in their front space.

At first sight her works may look colourful and exotic, especially during the grey Dutch winter.

However, taking a closer look, a number of different cultures seem to converge to create a personal world of landscape-like compositions.

The best amongst them have a dreamlike quality in which the curving hills and the meandering streams try to find an inner harmony in deeply saturated colours and flowing shapes.
