Painting, acrylics on paper by Christoph Florin

Christoph Florin

Male Loneliness, 41,7 × 31,7 cm incl. frame, 2026, Acrylics on paper

This artwork is part of the first paintings on paper by artist duo Christoph Florin. The body of work was made for the show "APRIL FOOLS, or are we just fools?" at Ulstrup Gallery.

The exhibition reflects on fake news, political spin, and the growing polarization fueled by algorithmic infrastructures, systems that increasingly shape our understanding of reality.

The exhibition approaches these issues through visual metaphors and playful yet unsettling works. In Christoph Florin’s work, recurring motifs such as open taps hint at parallel streams of information. Each tap represents a different flow and a different narrative or worldview. These variations echo the way algorithmic systems personalize realities for each viewer, producing multiple, fragmented versions of truth.
