Vanessa Räss-Dante, a Swiss artist based in Zurich, emerges as a compelling new voice at Mondejar Gallery. Her practice is marked by a profound interplay between youthful dynamism and a deeply philosophical engagement with the human condition, rendering her a distinctive presence in contemporary art discourse.

Her latest series, The Untitled Cans, constitutes an introspective exploration of emotional estrangement and the intricate layers of lived experience. Through these works, Räss-Dante magnifies the subtleties of personal disconnection, presenting a visual dialectic that interrogates the tensions between individual agency and recurring existential patterns. Her creative process is underscored by a disciplined effort to reconcile these tensions, drawing upon her inner struggles as a wellspring of artistic expression. These visceral emotional landscapes not only form the essence of her work but also invite a profound contemplation of resilience, transformation, and the human psyche’s capacity for renewal.
