L’Heure Bleue – that fleeting hour between day and night, when the sky turns a luminous, infinite blue. One might ask: “What do I really see?” It is a threshold, a space where reality and dream intermingle. In Japanese, this moment is called tasogare-doki – “the time when one can no longer clearly see what stands before them.” 

Shimmering marks Mona Kuhn’s first solo show in Switzerland, bringing together two of her acclaimed series: She Disappeared into Complete Silence and Kings Road. In both bodies of work, Kuhn presents the nude with a humanistic approach by juxtaposing the elusive presence of a solitary figure with the elemental geometry of modernist architecture, thereby shifting figuration into abstraction and raising questions about presence and absence, memory and imagination.
