Solo Exhibitions
Across six solo exhibitions, hester unfolds a visual philosophy that probes the threshold between seeing and understanding. Most recently, Architectures Éphémères (Les Rencontres d’Arles, 2024) advances her exploration of abstraction as a mode of thought—where space, memory, and meaning are not simply represented, but revealed. This conceptual evolution is further developed in Embracing the Kynic not the Cynic (Les Rencontres d’Arles, 2023), Abstractions (Tres Hombres Art, 2023), and Revelations (Les Rencontres d’Arles, 2022), where photography becomes epistemology: a method of inquiry in which form gives way to perception, and the visible dissolves into felt experience. Earlier exhibitions, Traces of Perception (Oscar Ascanio Gallery, 2015) and Concrete Perspective (Oscar Ascanio Gallery, 2012), established the foundation of this inquiry—interrogating the structural poetics of space and the elusive, constructed nature of perception.
