Opening today in Berlin, Art on Tezos: Berlin 2025, managed by Anika Meier, includes Between the Fences, a solo series by Yuri presented by Fakewhale.

Acting as an art project that operates between digital culture and curatorial experimentation, Fakewhale brings to Berlin a reflection on how memory, code, and space intersect in contemporary visual practice.

In Between the Fences, Yuri reconfigures fragments of domestic life into digital architectures of recollection.

Each work unfolds as a layered environment where texture, light, and data interlace to form visual systems that oscillate between the intimate and the abstract. Memory appears here not as narrative but as structure, reconstructed through the logic of image and perception.

The series reveals an attention to fragility and persistence. Within these compositions, the act of remembering becomes architectural, shaped by the rhythm of construction and the subtle erosion of form. Yuri’s gesture transforms the digital surface into a site of emotion and reflection, where the boundaries of representation dissolve into coded sensitivity.

At the core of Between the Fences lies a meditation on how technology redefines intimacy by translating emotion into the logic of visual systems. Yuri’s visual language inhabits a threshold where memory is not recalled but reconstructed, operating within the paradox of remembering through computation. The digital surface functions as an extension of consciousness, a perceptual membrane where affective traces are reorganized into data yet retain the density of lived experience.

Through this process, the work achieves a rare form of equilibrium: it preserves the slowness and sensibility of painting while unfolding through the immediacy and precision of software. This hybrid temporality dislocates authorship from the gesture of the hand to the rhythm of the algorithm, revealing how technology can act not as a mechanism of distance but as an instrument of proximity. Within these architectures, the domestic image ceases to be descriptive, it becomes the residue of perception itself, a reconstructed memory field in which emotion, code, and time converge. Between the Fences ultimately proposes that technology, when approached with sensitivity, does not diminish the human but amplifies its resonance, allowing remembrance to persist in new material forms.

Through this presentation, Fakewhale extends its ongoing inquiry into how technology can sustain poetic and affective depth. Between the Fences proposes a field in which computation and emotion coexist, tracing the pulse of presence across digital matter.
