Xie Lei presented Au-delà at the Fondation Louis Vuitton as part of the Open Space #13 programme, which ran from October 18, 2023, to April 2, 2024. The exhibition featured five monumental paintings that immersed visitors in ethereal landscapes, where luminous green and blue figures emerged and dissolved, caught between apparition and disappearance.

Xie Lei’s work blurred the boundaries between reality and imagination, creating a dreamlike world that questioned perception, identity, and the tension between life and death. A mirrored wall further amplified this immersive experience, reflecting and distorting the figures to heighten the sense of ambiguity and wonder.

The exhibition offered a rare opportunity to encounter Xie Lei’s poetic vision, where painting became a gateway to other worlds.
