Bernheim, London is delighted to present Brink, Jure Kastelic’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. The collection of paintings interrogates the shifting relationship between perception, technology, and memory. Known for his distinctive visual language that merges digital aesthetics with painterly awareness, Kastelic continues to challenge how images are constructed, consumed, and remembered.
Opening Reception: Thursday, 16 April | 6–8 PM
Exhibition Dates: 16 April – 22 May, 2026
Location: Bernheim, 1 New Burlington St, London W1S 2JA
This latest series builds on the artist’s ongoing exploration of the fleeting nature of images and the mechanisms of media representation. Kastelic begins by generating source imagery using open-source AI tools, an approach that lends the works their instantly recognizable visual language, before reworking and layering these digitally constructed images into painterly compositions. The figures in Brink appear preoccupied, their downward gaze suggesting passivity and a quiet disengagement, as if glimpsed mid-action within a subtly fantastical everyday. Compelling yet distant, they never meet the viewer’s eye, remaining suspended between the known and the unknown, and embodying a psychological threshold between safety and risk.
This show will be held concurrently at Bernheim, London, alongside Tom Waring, Make it Rain.
