In 'Spaces Between', Zilla Leutenegger presents a selection of ten multimedia installations and monotypes that explore the poetry of everyday life. Her work features immersive projections and drawings that blend digital and analogue media to create dreamlike architectural spaces inhabited by faint, ephemeral narratives.
The exhibition 'Spaces Between' offers a profound exploration of Zilla Leutenegger’s practice, characterized by her signature fusion of multimedia installation, mural drawing, and video projection. Through these works, Leutenegger creates immersive environments where static architecture is animated by light, shadows, and the presence of her alter ego, 'Zilla'. The installations invite viewers into quiet, atmospheric vignettes that capture everyday actions such as waiting, reading, or watching, effectively blurring the boundaries between fiction and reality, as well as the transition between two-dimensional sketches and three-dimensional space.
Beyond these individual installations, the exhibition engages in a conceptual dialogue with the permanent collection of Museum Tinguely. By contrasting Leutenegger’s introspective, large-scale projections with the kinetic mechanical dynamism characteristic of Jean Tinguely’s work, the show highlights a shared fascination with movement, light, and the poetry of everyday life. Curated by Andres Pardey, the exhibition serves as an invitation to rediscover the museum space and its contents through a fresh, evocative lens.
