SALLY KINDBERG
Sally Kindberg, born in Sweden (1970) and studied at
Goldsmiths, University of London where she now lives
and works. Interested in both high and low brow culture,
Kindberg plays on the notion of the tragicomic in a society
that is both civilised and ridiculous and she uses
this humorous approach acting as a portal that enables
us to explore other, more unsavoury emotions. Digging
where she stands, it is often Kindberg’s nearby surroundings
that take centre stage. A fragment of a frame of
life in the city is brought into the limelight and Kindberg
uses detailed observations without exposing the individual
or the original inspiration for the work. Kindberg’s
paintings are predominantly figurative but where the figurative,
which is primarily the starting point, becomes
peculiarly abstracted. Then, intuitively embracing the
unfolding picture, surfaces and shapes pop out, plough
through or disappear into the background with the use
of vibrant colours. Often highlighted areas stand out to
create harmony or tension in the paintings.
