Existential Space | Dim Yuz
In “Existential Space”, Dim Yuz’s new painting exhibition,
The peeling walls, catalogue numbers and old objects, which have become a trademark of his work,
Are magnified, shifted to the centre stage to recount the artist’s childhood memories
And his strong desire to preserve recollections from a lost period, through documentation of the motifs
On canvas.
