In the exhibition Nightswimming, Galerie Thomas Schulte presents new large-format works by Iris Schomaker. Her paintings explore the interplay of time, movement, and stillness—people and animals linger in moments that seem both fleeting and enduring. Layers and corrections lend the surfaces a temporal depth, while the motifs oscillate between reality and imagination. The viewer encounters images and traces that elude disappearance.
