“Bleus Écrans”

2025 July 5 to August 2

For his very first solo exhibition with us, the artist explores the convergence of two blues: the hue of the sky and that of screens. Through his paintings, Zhou delves into the intersections between the natural and the digital, daylight and interface light. His compositions center on windows, reflections, glass surfaces, and phone screens—fragments of daily life that oscillate between clarity and blur, intimacy and distance. Reflections become passageways, frames transform into thresholds, and the image becomes a site of both appearance and erasure. Rather than reproducing the visible, Zhou’s canvases evoke the interplay between presence and absence, offering a perception that is fluid, unstable, suspended between reality and memory.

Bleus Écrans subtly shifts from one blue to another, from one gaze to the next, and from a tangible world to a diffused one—a blue sky becomes screen; a screen, in its glow, becomes sky.

A blue rises
on the cold pane
another pulses
in the hollow of the hand

the sky blinks
behind a reflection
a breath
left on the screen

we no longer know
who watches
who crosses

blue becomes threshold
threshold becomes silence
