Next month I'll be taking part in a group exhibition in La Fiaba gallery. Trying to finish a couple of new works for it.

Untitled, 74 x 96 cm.

Working on new stuff with the aim to create enough for a spring exhibition. This one is just paper, no paint at all. Also, it was refreshing to do it in black and white. Messing with color can be a pain sometimes.

”Wish”

(2022, 81x122cm, newsprint, wood glue, acrylic on hardboard)

A counterpoint to “Defiance”. Some Judeo-Christian mysticism juxtaposed with pagan symbolism. It is all surface level, however, and void of intentional narrative meaning.

The Black Dog Runs At Night

(68x100cm, 2023-2024, newsprint, wood glue, acrylic on hardboard)

In literature and art, the black dog represents a shadow figure that accompanies a person and becomes stronger in times of despair or loneliness.
