Lukas Müller's paintings in soft pastel on raw linen explore the fragility of memory. Layers of pigment wash into the fabric, mirroring how recollections fade and shift over time. Some images remain crisp, while others dissolve into hazy, dreamlike forms. His rapid, instinctive gestures capture fleeting thoughts, moments slipping away, yet leaving a trace. The contrast between sharpness and blur creates a quiet tension, reflecting the unstable nature of remembering and forgetting.
