Ausstellungseröffnung: „Liquid Love“ von Emilie Houldsworth

We are pleased to present *Liquid Love*, a solo exhibition by Emilie Houldsworth

Houldsworth’s practice unfolds through a tactile interplay of materials, where surface, structure, and sensation converge. Working with laser-cut steel and velvet, she creates sculptural compositions that oscillate between sharpness and softness, between architectural precision and intimate physicality.

Inspired by Zygmunt Bauman’s “Liquid Love,” this exhibition explores the fragility and fluidity of human connection in an increasingly digital world: fragmented emotions, love, desire, and the psychological impact of screens on how we connect.

In “Liquid Love,” steel becomes a framework of tension: cut, shaped, and opened into delicate forms, while velvet introduces a contrasting depth, absorbing light and gesture with a quiet, sensorial pull. Together, these materials form a dialogue about permeability, vulnerability, and the fluid states that exist between bodies, emotions, and the spaces they inhabit.

We warmly invite you to join us for the opening!
