From 19 November, Snø Galleri will present a solo exhibition “Det er natten” by Susanna Antonsson.
Det er natten, is the darkness of night, a state of mind and the uncertainty of the process.
Susanna Antonsson's practice centers around small-scale paintings on wooden panels, exploring an interest for everyday descriptions and atmospheric mysteries. Antonsson approaches painting as a process of simplification, precision and repetition. She returns to the same elements again and again, as an exercise in focus and attentiveness. This act can be perceived as a reflection on our relationship with images and how they are shaped by the attention economy we live in; how we increasingly observe ourselves looking, rather than seeing directly.
Antonsson holds a master’s degree from the Art Academy in Bergen and has exhibited at galleries in Norway and Sweden. Her works have been acquired by the City of Oslo Art Collection and are also in private collections in Norway and East Asia.
