Taking its name from the iconic song by David Bowie and Queen, Under Pressure explores the forces that shape, strain, and sometimes liberate human identity. 

Lucie Kohler captures the friction of the everyday with vibrant precision. Her colored pencil works transform familiar scenes into vivid, surreal landscapes, revealing humor, irony, and emotional depth within seemingly ordinary moments. Jean-Marie Fahy, on the other hand, invites viewers into a softer, introspective realm. His delicate linework and muted textures explore bodily surfaces, fragmented landscapes, and the quiet resistance of identity against dominant narratives. Together, their works — figurative yet dreamlike, vibrant yet fragile — create a dialogue that resonates with the spirit of Under Pressure, capturing the emotional intensity and resilience of our times.


Join us with the artists for the vernissage on Saturday 17 May 2025, 16:00-19:00.
