NIKOS YFANTIS CREATIVE STUDIO PRESENTS BEAUTY IS BETWEEN US BY ANDREW HAZEWINKEL

It feels rare and generous to encounter a practice within such an intimate, trusted setting,
hosted by Nikos Yfantis Creative Studio, where Andreas Hazewinkel’s work quietly
vibrates with originality in both medium and its luminous contemporary gaze on the
ancient.
Beauty Is Between Us unsettles boundaries between sculpture and photography, presence
and trace, drawing the viewer’s own body into this oscillation, while its fragmented figures
and damaged surfaces subtly probe tensions of positive and negative masculinity and
femininity, and the shifting question of dominance.
Through this interplay of care and erosion, past and present, the work opens onto a more
universal question of the dominant,
as if the ancient itself were acting as a filter, casting a contemporary patina that reframes
how power, beauty, and embodiment are seen and negotiated.
