Almine Rech Brussels is pleased to present Weight of Love, Aly Helyer’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from January 16 to March 1, 2025. The monumentality of the term Weight of Love often implies an atmosphere of intensity and drama, usually associated with feelings of affection and love. However, Aly Helyer is not interested in theatricality. She is more intrigued by the most nuanced manifestations of such heartstrings as a way to explore the human condition. From expressions over interactions to gestures, her paintings examine relationships and physical acts of touching as the manifestation of love. Without a grand narrative or proposal, they manifest one fundamental question – what is to be human?
