Christian Schiebe | leichtes Abweichen | Galerie Inga Kondeyne | 05.09.–18.10.2025

The exhibition “leichtes Abweichen” presents small-scale ink drawings by Christian Schiebe, mounted on primed papers, films, or common stationery materials. The works function as loose components for spatial arrangements and are positioned in relation to surfaces, inventory, structural conditions, light, and shadow. By hanging, laying, or sticking them, the drawings interact playfully with elements such as skirting boards, light switches, or ventilation grilles, while remaining autonomous and emitting their own drawing light.

Schiebe works in a process-oriented manner: repetition, variation, and correction result in a few peculiar exceptions from hundreds of attempts, which are assembled into groups over months and prepared for their optimal placement in the space. Thematically, the drawings address becoming, the not-yet, or no-longer, creating a suspension between appearance and disappearance. The presentation explores the relationship between space, material, and line in an improvised rhythm of slight deviations.

Christian Schiebe, born 1985 in Neubrandenburg, lives and works in Berlin; master student with Prof. Nanne Meyer at Weißensee Academy of Art Berlin; numerous exhibitions and scholarships including Kunstfonds Bonn, Galerie OQBO Berlin, Galerie Stella A. Berlin.
