In Medieval Neon, Galerie Thomas Schulte presents two expansive light installations by Bethan Huws in the gallery's Corner Space and adjacent front room. The works, shown for the first time in Germany, feature animal figures adapted from Romanesque bas-reliefs and formed in thin neon tubes, mounted on transparent panels: one, depicting a group of four monkeys, is suspended from the ceiling, while the other comprises three isolated figures—a hare, a lion, and a monster devouring a human—arranged together on a rack. The simply outlined yet intricate images preserve the aesthetic of their source material, while extending its symbolism and expressivity, transformed and transmitted through the medium of neon.
