In Contours of Emotion, artist Michel Jegerlehner invites viewers into a world where precision meets poetry, and observation transforms into expression. His work captures the beauty hidden in the ordinary — the reflections on glass, the geometry of a building, the play of shadow and light on a bustling street. Through vibrant colors and carefully defined lines, Michel constructs visual harmonies that balance structure with spontaneity. Having navigated a rich and varied creative path — from illustration and tattoo design to photography — Michel brings to his paintings a deep sensitivity to composition and form. Each piece reflects his fascination with the dialogue between the technical and the emotional. Acrylics and markers become his tools for translation, allowing him to articulate moments of perception in a style that is both bold and meticulous. Michel’s process is one of immersion — a meditative act where time dissolves and intuition takes over. The result is a body of work that radiates clarity yet retains mystery. His paintings, with their geometric precision and expressive chromatic choices, challenge the boundaries of contemporary graphic art while remaining profoundly human.

Contours of Emotion is more than an exhibition — it is an invitation to pause and look deeper. Through his distinct visual rhythm, Michel celebrates the tension between control and freedom, between the tangible and the imagined. His art speaks in colors, lines, and light — a language that transcends words, evoking the emotional resonance of seeing the world anew.
