JOËLLE TUERLINCKX – SUMMERTIME
2023-06-12With Summertime, Joëlle Tuerlinckx draws us into the warm haze of summers past. Oscillating between precision and playfulness, her new sculptures and collages combine rational geometry with an oneiric longing for tomorrow’s horizons. Wind and sun enter an open window in the gallery as if the outdoors was pushing for emotional space. We step over ‘dislocated’ drawings made from flat brass and aluminium plaques. These fine floor works connect to the series of Collages d’Atelier on the walls of the gallery. In one set, Tuerlinckx combines a computer-generated outline with a Chute d’Atelier. A small painting in monochrome scarlet is placed face-down, its pigment barely visible but for coloured stains that have seeped out to its edges. With others, the painted remnant is substituted by a picture postcard of a sunset or seascape.
