until 11.04. | #4936ARTatBerlin | Galerie Schindler shows from Thursday, 12 February 2026 the exhibition “Im Wasser” by the artist duo Parallelparadies.
In “Im Wasser”, the artist duo Parallelparadies – consisting of painter Annette Beisenherz and sculptor Wilken Skurk – presents recent collaborative works developed through an ongoing artistic dialogue.

Parallelparadies, Not Ready, 2024, Mischtechnik auf Holz, 90 × 87 cm.
Founded in 2023, Parallelparadies brings together contrasting elements within a shared pictorial space. Abstract, fluid backgrounds created through poured paint encounter realistic figurative scenes. Chance and intention, the unconscious and the conscious, abstraction and figuration coexist in deliberate tension.

Parallelparadies, Ohne Titel, 2025, Mischtechnik auf Holz, 125 × 110 cm.
The works explore themes of human relationships, communication, dependency and balance. Motifs such as surfacing and submerging, confinement, doors, keyholes and keys point to transitional states – moments poised between fear and ecstasy, emergence and disappearance.

Parallelparadies, Ringen, 2024, Mischtechnik auf Holz, 152 × 137 cm.
Through their joint artistic process, Parallelparadies seeks to visualize the limits of communication and, at the same time, to overcome them on an image-based level. The resulting works form a shared visual territory in which differing perspectives remain distinct while entering into a productive exchange.
Opening: Thursday, 12 February 2026, 7:00 pm
Exhibition dates: Thursday, 12 February until Saturday, 11 April 2026
