Rolando Anselmi is pleased to announce Adéla Janská and Lexia Hachtman’s duo exhibition at the Berlin gallery, conceived and created as a ‘window project’, an exhibition format visible from the street.
In Janká’s painting, femininity emerges through a solitary figure set within a domestic interior, whose luminous skin evokes the delicate surface of porcelain dolls. Here, memory and dream converge, staging a dialogue between intimacy and distance, strength and fragility, while suspending time and space in a dreamlike, almost enchanted atmosphere.
Ambiguity of desire and isolation also emerges in Hachtman’s work: her figures inhabit fragmented, scenographic rooms, captured in moments of transition. Through layering and reduction, she balances drawing and color to create images that linger in a prolonged sense of waiting.
In both, the human body takes on a significant role: their works construct a dialogue on intimacy, estrangement, and the complexity of looking, where memory and desire gently arise. Adéla’s presences aim to reflect on the collective dimension of female identity, while Lexia’s subjects, fragile yet resilient, inhabit the thresholds between private and public spheres.
