Perrotin is pleased to present XXI, the first solo exhibition in Dubai of French Beninese artist Jeremy Demester, gathering unveiled works.
Jeremy Demester approaches his canvases with an eye for natural processes of imitation and representation. Through philosophical inquiry and an intuitive aesthetic, the artist seeks to reveal the subtle traces of forgotten myths in modern everyday perceptions. His art is influenced by protohistoric archaeology, mythologies from all societies, and global popular culture – a wide-ranging knowledge he inherited from his Gypsy origins.
