In this exhibition, the five participating painters present a wide range of works that explore the potential of markers as a painting tool, with a focus on enriching the pictorial language and discovering new ways of observation.

Drawing with markers has accompanied the artists' practice for a long time, alongside their engagement with other painting techniques. The markers and felt-tip pens, once used in childhood, lend themselves to outdoor painting conditions and enable the artists to virtuously capture the fleeting moments of everyday life.

The exhibition’s title is derived from the words of American artist Jasper Johns, who referred to the interplay between objects in reality and their representation in works of art. This dynamic is reflected in the representational choices made by the artists and, at the same time, underscores the act of practice as an inseparable part of each artist’s individual creative process.
