Mari Sunna

The new solo exhibition by Mari Sunna is showcasing paintings created during the last three years and also drawings, that the artist is displaying now for the first time. 

After the strong and captivating figures from her previous exhibition she has moved on to new realms of freedom. It is as if Sunna has dived into the depths of the body, image and mind, to bring back wondrous and striking images we now have an opportunity to encounter for the very first time.

The new paintings teem with interlocking and stacked shapes and abstract views seen from the front, above, close up, far away. The soft surface of the works glows with colour and dim light, shapes become bodies, limbs, organs, faces.Is there an elongated neck, teeth, lips or an undulating fold of a body? The untitled works merge from the artist’s inner world and her concentrated, visual idiom that collapses the structures of thought and language.
