Greetings From Jupiter invites viewers into the vivid, otherworldly universe of Jonas Vanderbeke, where oil painting becomes a space for cosmic drift and emotional intensity. Through celestial landscapes and fluorescent bouquets of violets, Vanderbeke explores color, atmosphere, and desire with a cinematic sensibility. His work often channels the mood and visual language of films that inspire him—most notably Querelle—blending dreamlike imagery with a charged, almost mythic presence. The result is a body of work that feels at once intimate and expansive, suspended somewhere between cinema, memory, and the cosmos.
