Second-Hand Stories Moises Yagues Solo Show

SECOND-HAND STORIES presents Moisés Yagües’ latest body of work, bringing together his iconic Artist and Monsters, Garden, and Homage to the Masters series alongside the Taiwan premiere of a new group of works created with carefully sourced antique frames.

Collected by the artist from flea markets and antique shops, each vintage frame carries the traces of a previous life. Rather than simply containing the image, these historical objects become active participants in the composition, allowing past and present to coexist within a single work.

Through Yagües’ signature blend of humour and tenderness, forgotten objects are given renewed purpose, inviting viewers to discover how every mark of time can become the beginning of a new story.

The Reposition of Sights

“Seeing” has never been a one-way act. As we see artworks, the artworks, in turn, see us back.

“The Reposition of Sights” centers around the dual states of “seeing” and “being seen,” inviting ten international contemporary artists to respond to the familiar act of seeing through their distinctive visual languages.

Some works within the exhibition embody an active gaze: figures within the compositions confront the viewer directly, projecting emotion, energy, and imagination outward, at times even carrying the intention of forming a connection. In doing so, viewers gradually become aware that they themselves are also being seen. Other works return to the more traditional role of being observed, where unfolding scenes, situations, and relationships within the image carry the viewer’s gaze and interpretation, turning seeing into a process of negotiating relationships, power, and distance.

By placing “seeing” and “being seen” side by side, the exhibition dissolves the fixed boundaries between observer and observed, allowing the two positions to continuously shift and exchange throughout the act of viewing. As gazes begin to circulate back and forth, seeing becomes more than a simple action. Through the notion of “Reposition,” the exhibition further reflects on the shifting nature of perspective and perception: how we see artworks, how artworks see us, and how we come to recognize ourselves through these constantly changing positions of seeing.

Riccardo Nannini x Paolo Pilotti Group Show

Riccardo Nannini, also known as Cane, begins his work from the moment when something ordinary starts to feel slightly “off.” Familiar symbols, characters, and everyday scenes are pulled apart and recomposed into sharp, punk-inflected visual narratives charged with irony and tension.
His paintings unfold with a strong sense of storytelling.
Figures seem to perform within theatrical, sometimes chaotic environments, and the density of details encourages viewers to move across the surface as if reading a graphic novel panel by panel. Humor and discomfort coexist, creating a subtle but persistent sense of unease.
Paolo Pilotti’s work begins with seduction. Bold colors, luminous surfaces, and embroidered fabrics create an immediate visual attraction. His paintings often appear luxurious and tactile-almost theatrical in their intensity-inviting viewers to come closer, even to imagine touching them.
Yet the longer one looks, the more this glamour reveals itself as a strategy. Pilotti builds his compositions upon the structural foundations of Renaissance figuration, referencing classical balance and sacred iconography.
Within these refined frameworks, however, he inserts contemporary symbols: exaggerated lips, tattoos, dyed hair, brand references, and markers of cosmetic enhancement.

Woven Dreams: Female Artist Group Show

The feminine perspective acts as a prism, refracting everyday life into a spectrum of subtle and vivid possibilities. This group exhibition brings together five women artists from diverse cultural backgrounds, exploring contemporary female experience as it unfolds between lived reality and the edges of imagination. 

The works reveal moments of tenderness and emotional care, expressions of selfhood free from social expectations, and reflections on childhood, memory, and cultural context. Though diverse in approach, they collectively point to the fluid, layered, and evolving nature of female experience.

Rather than defining what it means to be a woman, the exhibition allows multiple voices to coexist, inviting viewers to encounter the richness and complexity of contemporary female perspectives.

Mirrors of the Soul: Group Exhibition about Animal

This group exhibition brings together seven international artists, presenting animal figures that span time and space: from cats, dogs, and rabbits of everyday companionship, to bears and tigers symbolizing strength and primal desire, and even extinct dinosaurs and imaginary unicorns. These animals are not naturalistic depictions, but anthropomorphized beings imbued with human emotions, gestures, and states of mind, reflecting our own condition within urban life.

Rhys Brown x Ma Dong Li x Cheng Cheng Yi Group Exhibition

This three-person exhibition at Ting Ting Art Space presents Rhys Brown (UK), Ma Dong Li (China), and Cheng Cheng Yi (China). Each explores memory and identity through distinct forms: Brown’s playful “Vegan Gyotaku” toy prints, Ma’s theatrical figurative paintings, and Cheng’s poetic portraits between childhood and solitude. Together, their works invite us to reflect on how memories are shaped, worn, and transformed in today’s visual culture.

Nathan Paddison x Gemma Holzer Dual Exhibition

Now on View｜The Untamed Dreams

This July, Ting Ting Art Space presents a dual exhibition featuring Australian artist Nathan Paddison and Dutch artist Gemma Holzer, two distinct voices united by their bold use of color and emotional intensity.
Nathan’s canvases roar with raw instinct and dark humor, layered with rough brushstrokes and cryptic wordplay. His work is both a personal refuge and a poetic response to a turbulent life.
Gemma, in contrast, paints vivid worlds inhabited by PinkBoy—a childlike alter ego born of memory, isolation, and the digital age. Her saturated colors and soft gradients veil the fragile threshold between innocence and disillusionment.
Though their paths and practices diverge, both artists harness the power of color to tell untamed, deeply personal stories. Together, they invite us into a dream that refuses to be tamed.

Dylan Gill x Giorgio Tentolini 2025 Duo Exhibition

Ting Ting Art Space is proud to present two distinctive and contemplative solo exhibitions in May 2025. British artist Dylan Gill and Italian artist Giorgio Tentolini will showcase their works on the first and second floors respectively, using the contrasting languages of painting and sculpture to explore themes of perception, presence, and visual experience.

On the first floor, “Traces of Unseen” by Dylan Gill offers an immersive look into the artist’s signature multi-perspective portraiture. Raised in a lively working-class household in London, Gill found in painting a quiet yet resolute form of self-expression. Through layered viewpoints, elegant color palettes, and rhythmic compositions, he reconstructs the human figure and challenges conventional ways of seeing.

Upstairs, Italian artist Giorgio Tentolini—renowned in the European contemporary art scene for his wire mesh sculptures—presents “The Lights Between.” His work blends light, structure, and classical aesthetics to search for the essence of image between abstraction and figuration. Using finely hand-cut wire layered over monochrome backgrounds, Tentolini creates portraits, statues, and architectural forms purely through the interplay of light and shadow. Viewed closely, the surface dissolves into intricate hexagonal grids; from a distance, ghostly forms subtly emerge.

Together, these two exhibitions bridge painting and sculpture, the UK and Italy, the flat and the dimensional. We warmly invite you to experience the space between visibility and mystery—where light and form quietly reveal themselves.
