Story

ARTisSpectrum: Aside from her signature figurative motif – a woman seen in profile
whose face she traces into each of her many-layered acrylic
compositions – Swedish artist Caroline Örnstedt’s exquisite paintings are
abstract whirlpools of colors and textures. Distributed in thick, gestural
brushstrokes, her paints also thrive on conflict: each work is defined by
a striking contrast in hue, whether through the pairing of vibrant yellows
and reds with a formal black and white backdrop, or swirls of crimson
and white crisscrossing boldy amidst verdant green surroundings.
Despite these extreme juxtapositions of textures, tones, and figurative
elements with abstract compositions, Örnstedt maintains an
unmistakable aesthetic throughout her work, managing to balance
the competing forces that she deploys. Each work is a thrilling and
seductive confluence of opposites.

NEW YORK, NY - Chelsea's Agora Gallery will feature the original work of Swedish artist, Caroline Örnstedt in Unbound Perspectives.
Caroline Örnstedt paints acrylic on canvas or frameless wooden tablets. Her lively, multitudinous compositions in primary hues feature passionate strokes, luscious marks and the intriguing abstractions of unconscious locomotion. Adopting a brushless approach, Örnstedt pushes the paint around by palette knife, leaving a residue that is so thick and multi-dimensional that it verges on topographic. A self-taught artist governed by a freely spontaneous nature, the defining feature of her oeuvre is a micro figure, what the artist terms a 'soul' figment, which recurs in each individual work. Adorning her restless and at times theatrical application of paint to canvas with ethereal mists of glitter, Örnstedt's intuitive abstractions achieve a visceral impact with provocative and lingering appeal.
Caroline Örnstedt, an artist of Swedish heritage, grew up in the small village of Jälluntofta where she was born. She currently lives and works nearby in Reftele, Sweden.
