It is mainly an inner world that Annelies de Mey gives shape to. Through the closed, almost claustrophobic framing and lyrical use of light, she transforms the most banal locations – a playground, a park, a hotel room – into disturbingly charged mental images. As if she vacuums the places, captures their shallowness in a bell jar and observes them in an obscure light. By closing off a specific place or motif from the context in this way, their alienating reality and subcutaneous desires are revealed. — Inge Henneman
