Hey fever dream | Jesse Fischer

Come join us at Studio Seine during Museumnacht010 for the solo exhibition Hey fever dream with paintings by Tilburg based artist Jesse Fischer. When looking at his work we pay witness to scenes of colorful adult life in which innocence and an almost neurotic sexyness go hand in hand. It emits a modernity that for the average museum visitor has yet to dawn.

In a playful way, Fischer’s paintings depict a culture which is all about the individual pursuit of pleasure. The characters he paints often look cut-off from their surroundings, staring into the distance, in search for another rush. Despite these empty stares, the imaginary world in which these characters find themselves is an enchanting one in which the objects radiate joy and lightheartedness.

Fischer’s method could be described as ‘intuitive narrative painting’. Though there seems to be a story told in each of the works, this narrative is only formed by adding elements in an intuitive matter.
