Mamma Andersson: Adieu Maria Magdalena [9781644231685]

Overview

Adieu Maria Magdalena considers recurring themes and motifs from Andersson's oeuvre and suggests complex and potent feelings related to loss. 

Employing trompe l'oeil, the artist produces a subtly claustrophobic effect in this domestic space by layering uncanny interior scenes taken from her own home and her imagination, an interplay of surfaces and imagery that, like other works in the exhibition, probes the nature of representation. Pulling inspiration from other Scandinavian painters including Carl Fredrik Hill and Vilhelm Hammershøi, Andersson explores the tension between interiority and the external world, imbuing her compositions with a haunting stillness and introspection.

Author Karl Ove Knausgaard, a longtime collaborator of Mamma Andersson, provides an accompanying text to this book, offering a personal and evocative perspective on the artist's work.
