Thank you to MZ Collection and ArtVerona for the acquisition prize awarded to Ruben Brulat.

Ruben Brulat (1988, France) lives and works in France. His work spans photography, sculpture, and writing, exploring the fragility and vulnerability of the human body in contrast with the primordial forces of nature. The places Brulat encounters and discovers through walking become an integral part of his creative process, while the body, immersed in solitary and remote landscapes, engages with its surroundings, becoming both a presence and a means of exploration.

Ncontemporary is glad to present “C’est pour ça que l’on s’enfonce en toi”, an exhibition bringing together the photographic and poetic practice of Ruben Brulat (1988, France) and the sculptural practice of Aleksandar Petkov (1994, Bulgaria).

Two different languages meet around a shared question: what happens when the body, the word, and matter enter into a relationship with something that cannot be entirely controlled?

Ruben Brulat’s work emerges from a physical relationship with the landscape. Through photography, the artist’s body immerses itself in remote and wild territories, progressively reducing the distance between figure and environment. For this exhibition, a selection of photographs is presented alongside, for the first time, a series of poems that occupy the walls of the exhibition space, transforming language into a material presence in its own right.

In Brulat’s texts, natural and bodily elements such as stones, water, skin, leaves, wind, eyes, and footsteps recur through repetition, association, and shifts in meaning.

It is precisely through this relationship with matter that Brulat’s work encounters that of Aleksandar Petkov. His sculptures emerge from the combination and transformation of materials such as cement, pigments, flour, and plastic. The resulting forms retain traces of the processes that generated them: irregularities, tensions, and points of encounter between different materials remain visible, keeping the work in a state of instability and openness.

The title of the exhibition comes from one of Brulat’s poems: Regarde regarde l’eau qui boit le tout […] c’est pour ça que l’on s’enfonce en toi. S’enfoncer means to enter, to sink, to venture further in, but also conveys the idea of a progressive loss of stability. It is a movement towards something that ultimately transforms the person who undertakes it. In Brulat’s photographs, this passage takes place through the body; in the poems, it enters language. In Petkov’s works, it remains imprinted in matter, in its taking shape without entirely losing what it was before.

With thanks to Galleria Studio G7, Bologna.

Ncontemporary is glad to announce the publication of Deconstructions, bringing together over a decade of Jonny Briggs' body of work shaped by personal introspection, exploring themes of identity, family, sexuality, performance, and self-discovery.

Inspired by the productive potential of confusion, the artist embraces uncertainty as a catalyst for reflection, treating each artwork as a clue in an ongoing process of self-analysis. Spanning four distinct visual languages, Staged Scenes, Disrupted Prints, Dissected Frames, and Shoes, the book traces an evolving practice that challenges fixed meanings, social conventions, and binary thinking. Through humour, illusion, camouflage, and acts of disruption, the works examine the tension between concealment and expression, restriction and liberation.

The title Deconstructions references both the deconstructive philosophy of Jacques Derrida and the artist’s desire to dismantle inherited narratives surrounding family, identity, and representation.

The book is accompanied by texts from over twenty writers, the publication celebrates multiple interpretations and invites viewers to embrace complexity, ambiguity, and the value of holding contradictory perspectives at once.

Texts by: Nicola Baird, Sheyi Bankale, Emma Bowkett, Susanna Brown, Paul Carey-Kent, Tim Clark, Claudio Composti, William A. Ewing, Vivienne Gamble, Max Houghton, Tom Jeffreys, Emma Jones, Mirjam Kooiman, Darian Leader, Paul Lowe, Carol Mavor, Oli McCall, Melanie Pocock, Nicola Shipley, Lucy Soutter, Gareth Syvret, Raquel Villar-Prez, Millie Walton.

Though British artist Neil Raitt (b. 1986) lives and works in London, his work and creative vision have a decidedly American slant. Inspired by the mythos of America—and specifically the tradition and reception of hobby or outsider artists—landscapes and aesthetics from across the pond play a significant role in his work. Bob Ross of The Joy of Painting fame, in particular, has had a significant impact on Raitt’s practice, with Ross’s idealized style of American landscape becoming a core and repeating motif in many of his paintings. His canvases contain a unique synthesis of nostalgia, kitsch, and Americana, and offer a playful yet intellectual reflection on the means of art production today.

See his works at Ncontemporary Milan until 3 October 2026. A new selection of his works will then be presented by the gallery at Artissima 2026.

The horizon is an invisible line, yet one that is always present. It separates the earth from the sky, but it can also connect vision to imagination, a visual language to oneiric projection, the identity of the individual to alterity. The artists involved, each one with a distinct and personal expressive code, explore the horizon as a multifaceted threshold: a geographical boundary, a symbolic and liminal space, a distance between self and other, a point of tension between what is known and what lies elsewhere, between what we can reach and what remains distant, geographically, emotionally, or culturally.
