On the occasion of La Nuit des Bains
Xippas Gallery is pleased to announce Sky Rush, the new solo exhibition by Thomas Liu Le Lann in its Geneva spaces. The artist will present a collection of sculptures and mixed media works created specifically for this occasion.
Children, we tinkered with branches down in the forest
We would helmet ourselves with buckets
Becoming cosmic campers
We’d hide in your blind spots
We dreamed of one day becoming knights of the bedsheets
We lived in a constant excitement
We’d spend hours contemplating the sterile white of clouds
And Disney Channel.
Thomas Liu Le Lann, February 19, 2024
Born in 1994 in Geneva, Thomas Liu Le Lann lives and works in Geneva.
Thomas Liu Le Lann is an artist who creates sculptures and installations using various techniques involving fabric, glass, wood, photography, video, poetry, and found objects. His environments evoke his own life experiences through a logic of play, subversion, and autofiction. The objects he summons are reimagined, changing in scale, materials, and often encountering “soft heroes”, human-like protagonists who languidly inhabit his exhibitions.
