Press Release

Pilar Corrias is pleased to present Bury Your Masters, Manuel Mathieu’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. Featuring new paintings and sculptural works, Mathieu excavates inherited legacies (familial, political and spiritual) to question and interrogate their authority in a world where empathy seems to have vanished.

Bury Your Masters combines personal and historical reckoning with rupture and rebirth through a play with diverse media and materiality, envisioning a world that is both sacred and unsettled; where remnants of the past continue and persist. Mathieu harnesses the power of abstraction to create an installation that shifts from two to three dimensions, unfolding as an immersive ceremony of confronting truths. Through his material enquiries, Mathieu unmasks the fight for dignity and self-preservation in a world where a collective and equitable experience of reality seems impossible.
