Glücksspiel, Le jeu de l’amour et du hasard
May 6 – June 5, 2022
“Glücksspiel, Le jeu de l’amour et du hasard” is a presentation of Jacent’s new Cœur ceramic-paintings and their digitized versions as 25 non-fungible token. Exhibited in a 24/7 shop-window, this new series of heart-shaped erotic paintings and their 3D artefacts are available for sale via a QR code. By assuming all the codes of a tech-commercial show (sex paintings and crypto sales) Jacent presents a distorted, kind of ‘auto tuned’ version of their practice where everything seems saturated. Jacent wants to show how all the codes of our capitalist society can grind a formerly intimate and tender topic, Love.
All works (except video):
Oil on canvas mounted on wood, eathenware tiles, seal, painted artist frame in oak wood, TV mounts

* “Crypto Cœur” is a rare collection of 25 NFTs by artist-duo Jacent minted on the occasion of the opening of their solo exhibition “Glücksspiel, Le jeu de l’amour et du hasard” at sonneundsolche, Düsseldorf.
The series is a 3D version of heart-shaped ceramic-paintings created by the artists between 2020 and 2022. Jacent explores the motif of intimacy that unfolds in a collection of passionate memories.
Not clearly gendered, this digitized Kama sutra is an ode to love and tolerance.
