about

THE SHOW

Young Soy Gallery is proud to present Francesco Lietti’s solo show, Beyond the Mirage, in collaboration with Wyndham Social.

Young Soy Gallery X Wyndham Social

Through gentle abstraction, Lietti renders reality into a two-dimensional plane, evoking the sense of celebration and surprise that the city brings to us in every moment of every day. Whether it be the rolling hills, the matrix of skyscrapers, or even the fresh laundry hanging on balconies, Lietti does not fail to enliven the remarkably dense yet immensely human quality of this unique city in his oeuvre. Beyond the Mirage solicits us to see that tangled within the abstracted cityscape lies the true essence of a tightly-knit community, awakening a vision of ourselves as we really are and as we can be.
Reminiscent of the excitement of arriving by air to a faraway place, Beyond the Mirage encapsulates the plethora of sensations felt as one first enters this eclectic metropolis. Familiarity bleeding into strangeness, Lietti captures the overflowing promises of opportunity, the complex feelings of density, energy, and vibrancy of Asian cities within a cacophony of bright colours.
Don’t be fooled by the jovial quality of Lietti’s visions. Instead, ditch your grip on reality and allow truth and fantasy to merge into a sweet and indistinctive blur.
