Jhaveri Contemporary presents Thinking Hand, a solo exhibition by Michael Müller. Focusing on painting as his medium of practice for his third solo exhibition with the gallery, the artist works on linen canvas, glass and aluminium. Each of the gestural paintings are conceptually led and explore the intellectual systems—scientific, linguistic, and numerical—that structure our understanding of the world.
Müller’s image circuit is equally a reference to the visual traffic we encounter every day in overwhelming abundance, whether on the Internet, social media, or on the streets as advertisements compete for the viewer’s attention: an escape from this flood of pictures never seems possible; new images are always derived from existing images, which stage themselves as new, but are actually a repetition of the same thing over and over.
