“”Form is emptiness and the very emptiness is form; emptiness does not differ from form, form does not differ from emptiness; whatever is form, that is emptiness, whatever is emptiness, that is form, the same is true of feelings, perceptions, impulses, and consciousness,” (from Heart Sutra, Mahayana Buddhism.). Quantum light grid before the big bang. Work with the system of the grid as submitting to the law of universal forces. The path from the wandering of the subjective mind to cosmic and fundamental structures. Simultaneous awareness of form and formless.” \u2013 Atis J\u0101kobsons<\/p>\n

Atis J\u0101kobsons\u00a0(1985) currently lives and works in Berlin. He is looking for ways to reach the primal nothingness by blurring the boundaries between the subject and the object, the impossible and the mundane, the human and the divine, reality and idea. Using painting, charcoal drawing, video and installation, J\u0101kobsons creates sensitive surfaces to perceive the space that lies behind.<\/p>\n

Atis J\u0101kobsons in his solo show focuses on the grid as an invisible but present structure that twists phenomena (as well as ideas and gestures).
