First solo show at Yellow of Berlin based painter Lilla Von Puttkamer.
Lilla presents a new series of paintings, combining the themes of identity and sleep.
These paintings are portraits of people, revealed by their clothes from which they move out before laying down for the night, in a world that keeps becoming more and more efficient, pushing us to never stop thinking, even when we sleep.
Quoting the artist: “It is about sleep, let go off things and insomnia”.
