Press release

Almine Rech is pleased to present Amanda Wall's second solo show with the gallery, on view from October 15 to November 12, 2022.

Have you ever wondered why you were kissing someone? Been struck by the differentiation between concept and consequences while leaning deeper into the embrace? It is a liminal space bounded by opprobrium, disassociation, fragility, and ecstasy; where innocence and evil swirl together in excitement. It’s a split-second dotted with regret. But, we are overcome with yearning, and the fugitive thoughts of recourse only fuel the rationalization of our actions. We assume this negativity is our human consciousness chiming in, yet all we want is to feel animalistic. We want to feel wild and free, sexy and daring. At least, we think we do for that ephemeral moment. It doesn’t matter that it may not be natural or true.
