Dummy Armor at TEST_AREA_GALLERY, Digital Space
Dummy Armor by Mateusz Lengling, curated by LENG____LING, at TEST_AREA_GALLERY, Digital Space, 07/10/2024 – 07/11/2024.
The Dummy Armor exhibition by Mateusz Lengling delves into the realms of self-identification and social integration. Lengling approaches his artistic practice as a form of experimentation, likening it to a testing ground—a proving field—where he explores diverse expressive media, from painting and illustration to sculpture and installation. The exhibition examines themes of substitution, human facades, and the construction of identity in specific moments and contexts. Lengling captures not only his own moments of “masking” or role-playing but also observes these phenomena among his peers, where individuals present temporary selves or metaphorical “armors” in daily interactions. This ongoing exploration reflects a continuous search for authenticity and self-awareness amid societal expectations.
