The exhibition Energy in Another State by Joeggu Hossmann is a powerful portrait of human existence in the digital age. His realistic oil paintings, characterized by a distinctive pixelated style, merge the precision of traditional painting techniques with the aesthetics of modern technologies.
Hossmann’s works capture the essence of contemporary life – a world shaped equally by the complexity of digital interconnectedness and the fundamental questions of human identity. In his paintings, the pixels appear not only as a visual reference to digital imagery but also as a metaphorical grid reflecting the fragmentation and reconstruction of our daily lives. They illustrate how technology transforms our perception, our connections, and our self-images.
