Martin Kobe "Rudera"

The exhibition features one large-scale canvas depicting constructed urban landscapes overgrown by painterly passages, consuming one complete wall of the gallery space.
The space of the gallery grants the viewer only limited access to the picture piece by piece, but one is not able to get hold of the whole.
The gaze is lost in partly-impossible perspectives, interweaving one another, escaping under semi-transparent layers of paint, and re-emerging as images constructed anew.
