CHART
27 - 30 August, 2026
The gallery will present a group exhibition at Kunsthal Charlottenborg featuring works by Alva Le Febvre (SE/FR), Nadia Gueddouh (DK/DZ), and Nicolai Olesen (DK), alongside a sculpture by Yves Scherer (CH) in the Tivoli Gardens.
Alva Le Febvre (b. 1999, Arles, FR)
Le Febvre’s still life photography explores the interplay of play and control, desire and threat, engaging themes of femininity, material possessions, and the spectrum between chaos and fragility.
Within her carefully staged aesthetic, objects such as toy weapons, figurines, and bodies in exaggerated poses are arranged in dialogue. The sensual and the dangerous, the fragile and the aggressive coexist in a visual logic where opposites are not resolved but held in tension. Violent elements appear in soft materials, and decorative forms carry subtle traces of menace.
Nadia Gueddouh (b. 1991, Copenhagen, DK)
Primarily working with painting, Gueddouh’s work emerges from silence as both an artistic and existential practice. Gueddouh seeks a space in which painting can arise without predetermined intention — as a movement rather than a motif, as a wordless prayer. In the encounter between body and canvas, a rhythm takes shape that is closer to dance than to sight.
Gueddouh is drawn to the instinctive and the pre-linguistic; to the impulse that once led humans into caves to leave their traces in the dark. This necessity is not directed toward anything specific, but toward a connectedness with what is already there.
Here, passion becomes a sustained attentiveness, an intensity capable of transforming even the most ordinary. In the tension between silence and movement, between form and dissolution, painting opens itself as a site of listening.
Nicolai Olesen (b. 1998, Copenhagen, DK)
Working across painting and sculpture, Olesen develops images and forms that draw on references from art history and visual culture. His works resemble graphics, logos, or warning signs, sometimes suggesting a practical function. He examines how images communicate and how their meaning shifts depending on context.
Yves Scherer (b. 1987, Solothurn, CH)
Working across sculpture, installation, painting, photography, and lenticular prints, Scherer’s practice examines how personal narratives, celebrity culture, mediated realities, and digital and virtual experiences shape identity and perception. Scherer frequently combines analog and digital techniques and materials to create immersive environments that merge intimate storytelling with broader cultural imagery.
