Overview

Almine Rech London is pleased to present ‘Sweet Dreams of Rhythm and Dancing’, Andrea Marie Breiling’s first exhibition in London and her second solo exhibition with Almine Rech, opening on November 23 until December 18, 2021.

"These paintings beg for the return of miracles and hope. Not looking back at the dogma of life as we know it now—but to a brighter future full of endless possibilities. I started thinking of the paintings as a place my grandma would enter as she enters the next place in life. Full light and atmosphere, a form of illumination where each presents some sort of uplifting space to float on to the next place in the world/the universe and or beyond"

- Andrea Marie Breiling

Building multiple, cross-hatched layers of spray paint, Andrea Marie Breiling brings phantasmagorical gestures and shapes to life across the surfaces of her work. Her brush-free approach allows her to render wide forms filled with a frenetic energy that is as emotional as it is physical. Described by the artist as 'floating spaces', Breiling’s chromatic experiments with spray-paint on canvas offer visions into intimate spaces of infinite possibilities.
