Exhibitions currently running:
Andreas Eriksson - Coincidental Mapping - Eriksson's acutely atmospheric paintings, sculptures and photographs relate to his daily life and immediate surroundings, inspired by nature and his native Scandinavia. Eriksson's paintings in particular sit somewhere between abstraction and figuration, creating an enigmatic window to the outside world that feels at once familiar and mysterious. From 27 April until 25 May.
Mamma Andersson – Gooseberry - The title of the exhibition, ‘Gooseberry', refers to the bittersweet fruit: its complex taste bound by its prickly and yet beautiful translucent exterior. It also draws to mind the English expression ‘to play gooseberry' whereby someone feels alienated, observing a scene but not being a part of it. Such intertwining and hidden analogies resonate strongly with Andersson who delights in hinted and disjointed narratives. Her paintings invite our reading through their enticing familiarity, and yet deny a specific storyline, much like disparate film stills suspended in time. The viewer becomes an outside voyeur, drawn in to untangle the artist's vision. From 27 April until 25 May.
