‘Your Mother’
@ Simon Lee
—
“For the first time,
Ziegler’s painting
practice arcs back
to his sculptural
work, a fragmentation
and re-assembling of
body parts in which
medium and subject
intertwine & coalesce.”
Born:
1972 – London, UK.
The exhibition:
Is Ziegler's 2nd solo
with Simon Lee in
Hong Kong, drawing
inspiration from two
works by 17th century
French Baroque painter
Georges de la Tour.
References:
· Magdalene with the
Smoking Flame
· The Flea Catcher
"Working from this
axis Ziegler develops
an anatomical and
figurative lexicon.”

· The Grand Cause
(2nd version), 2018
