The exhibition Where Light Lands brings together work by Donald Schenkel, Jeske Haak and Lisette Schumacher.
Within this presentation, the gallery space plays an active role. Natural light shifts throughout the day, affecting how colours appear, how bronze catches light and how surfaces reveal their depth. The works respond to one another and to the space in which they are shown.
The paintings by Donald Schenkel and Lisette Schumacher each present a distinct approach to paint, colour and structure. Schenkel works from the materiality of paint itself — with visible layers, grounds and traces of the making process — while Schumacher explores how colour, transparency and rhythm can construct an image that gradually changes as you look.
In contrast, the bronze sculptures by Jeske Haak introduce a different presence. Her forms often appear organic or geological, as if shaped by natural processes. Cast in bronze, these forms gain weight and solidity, while the hand-finished surfaces reveal subtle variations and details.
Alongside this presentation, the first edition of Invitation is introduced, featuring the work of Anna Oudhof. In her sculptural objects, she combines copper and hand-blown glass. The materials respond directly to the surrounding light, shifting subtly throughout the day and establishing a distinct relationship to the space.
Together, the works form an exhibition in which painting and sculpture reinforce one another — not by telling a single narrative, but by creating a space in which material, form and attention take centre stage.
