REINIER LANDWEHR AT 24 ABERDEEN ST.
Rotterdam’s Reinier Landwehr (b. 1992) crafts kaleidoscopic worlds where dreams and nightmares collide. A multidisciplinary artist working across murals, paintings, and sculpture, Landwehr merges playful motifs—smiley faces, surreal flora—with undercurrents of darkness, balancing humor and existential tension. His vibrant, hallucinatory style invites viewers into alternate realities where time and logic dissolve, reflecting his fascination with the subconscious. Exhibited internationally, Landwehr’s work disrupts passive observation, urging audiences to embrace contradiction and discover layered narratives in color-saturated chaos. His contributions to the show exemplify art’s power to navigate the liminal space between fantasy and reality.
