Upcoming Exhibition

Zwischenwelten – Michael Hirschbichler and Consuelo Chacón

13 June to 11 July 2025
Opening Thursday, June 12, 6 – 8 pm

MOOS fine art gallery is pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition Zwischenwelten, featuring the work of Michael Hirschbichler and Consuelo Chacón.

The exhibition Zwischenwelten brings together works by Michael Hirschbichler and Consuelo Chacón. They explore threshold spaces – zones between the visible and invisible, matter and meaning and memory and presence. Their pieces engage with transitions and states of being, as well as the fragile constructions of existence that are difficult to grasp or define. The artists open up tension-filled realms where the ephemeral intertwines with deep time and where material elements are woven together with narratives, atmospheres, and memories.

Chacón’s works are ephemeral architectures of the in-between – poetic constructions where light, shadow, and transparency converge. Her art navigates memory, dreams and loss as spatial conditions of the soul. Her expansive objects float between sculpture, photography and architecture. They arise from fragments, hovering and overlapping in a process of becoming visible and disappearing again. Her pieces are metaphysical spaces and mirrors of inner states, where light, shadow and emptiness engage in dialogue.

Hirschbichler’s works open up a different kind of in-between space: a symbolically charged topography where geology, myth and psyche interpenetrate. He creates image spaces that function as threshold places—transitional zones between outer and inner landscapes, and between planetary environments and metaphysical reflection. In the exhibition, Hirschbichler presents striking serigraphs created with crushed rock from the Río Tinto mining landscape. One of the world’s oldest mining sites is thus captured in geological manuscripts where contemporary questions merge with the archaic and poetic. In Hirschbichler’s work, raw materials become ciphers for a world in which the relationship between humans and the Earth is being redefined.

In this way, Zwischenwelten unfolds a topography of transitions where the boundaries between reality and imagination dissolve. Past and present, body and memory, form and dissolution converge. The exhibition invites visitors to experience the intangible as a state of seeing and feeling.

The exhibition is on view from 13 June to 11 July 2025 at Gallery MOOS fine art, Forchstrasse 20, 8704 Herrliberg ZH, Switzerland.

Opening hours: Thursday and Friday, 2–6 pm, and by appointment.
