Niina Villanueva
Nocturna
19.8.–11.9.2022
Meet the artist on Saturday or Sunday 27–28 August from noon to 5 pm.
I examine plants, growth, color, matter and something inexplicable from an ontological perspective. I look at the endless metamorphosis between the matters, rub pigment on the linen and see myself reflected in it. I paint colors that form endless layers, color fields, images of worlds I did not know existed.
Nocturna sleeps at the end of the summer and in the bodies of flowers
it seems to be something that cannot be explained
a poem that seems like an image
an image that is a poem
And behind it, there is an unknown spiritual world
