The paintings in the exhibition have their roots in feelings of eerie, charged atmospheres. Weird and unknown elements entangle with the cozy and familiar. Soft-bodied creatures bump into coarse structures. Paint in all its insurgency takes its own routes. The creatures or phenomena in the paintings often bleed into each other, are only vaguely remembered, or waver in between several ways of being.
