Tilo&Toni's Debut Italian Solo Show at Galleria Metronom

exhibition · 2026-05-04

The exhibition 'In the Woods the Waterfall is Rushing' at Galleria Metronom in Modena marks the first Italian solo show for the artist duo Tilo&Toni. The series features unique photographic works on baryta paper that blend collage, darkroom interventions (described as 'false rayograms'), and resin applications, creating hybrid pieces that defy categorization as photography, painting, or sculpture. Subjects are drawn from nature with occasional Victorian-esque human presences. A digital waterfall at the entrance introduces color into an otherwise black-and-white display. The duo, founded in 2015 in Siegen, Germany, has arranged the exhibition with precise architectural echoes and reflections. Some works verge on total blackness, revealing unsettling floral forms.
