Waste Land marks
Birk Bjørlo's first exhibition with Brigade, presenting a new body of work unfolding across large-scale abstract oil paintings alongside smaller works with figurative silhouettes in oil, layered with wax and glass. The exhibition extends Bjørlo's exploration of painting as a space where perception remains unsettled, where opposing states intersect and established meanings begin to dissolve. Within this condition, a new potential emerges: a space where form, rhythm, and presence remain in flux.
