Paneled jackets, synthetic materials, and utilitarian clothing become a structural language rather than a subject in itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1534\" data-start=\"1196\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1534\" data-start=\"1196\"\u003eThese textures are used to depict fragments of memory: urban artifacts, objects, atmospheres, and scenes drawn from the artist’s lived experience. From a distance, the works may appear fluid, intuitive, even impressionistic. Up close, they reveal themselves as carefully engineered images, built from folds, seams, and synthetic surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1534\" data-start=\"1196\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1894\" data-start=\"1536\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe tension between what feels natural and what is entirely constructed sits at the core of the exhibition.\u003c\/strong\u003e By applying a language rooted in streetwear and urban material culture to scenes of memory, 0009 explores how personal history is shaped, compressed, and reconstructed over time — where effort disappears, but its weight remains embedded in the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1894\" data-start=\"1536\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2070\" data-start=\"1896\"\u003eThrough this body of work, ETERNO reaffirms its commitment to presenting contemporary practices that expand the dialogue between material culture, technology, and visual art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003ca title=\"SEE THE COLLECTION\" href=\"https:\/\/eternogallery.com\/products\/the-wrong-side-of-the-fence\" style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSEE THE COLLECTION \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eterno Dev","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48447607603423,"sku":"0","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/9529\/2639\/files\/0009-wrong-side-of-the-fence-artwork-scene-eterno.jpg?v=1774955865","url":"https:\/\/checkout.eternogallery.com\/products\/wrong-side-of-the-fence-01","provider":"Underdogs - Eterno","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
