International artist Alannah Robins exhibits at Chambres Separee in central Stockholm for a month until 22 November. The exhibition combines bronze sculpture and oil paintings of the body fragmented by water. Alannah’s work has been listed by The Guardian as one of the eight best of the female figure in Britain. She has exhibited in the Irish Museum of Contemporary Art, Dialogue Cultural Space, London and is currently participating in an exhibition in London’s Mayfair.
Stockholm, Sweden, October 17, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Drawing on familiar images, Alannah Robins explores our heritage of myth and memory. Among the materials she uses are cast bronze, paint and assembled works. She enjoys an instinctive, play-like, approach to the work, in which previously unrelated images conjoin to suggest deeper, unconscious layers of meaning.
“In these oil paintings, here in Chambres Separée, I have painted the figure underwater. The underwater body is a common metaphor for the unconscious mind, and the distortion of the image could be read as a fragmentation of the mind. In working with bronze, I like to play with casts of the body and from nature. When I put these different things together they take on a new meaning.” Alannah is currently living here in Sweden with her family. She is studying opera, and vocal training. She is interested in bringing together music-drama and a contemporary visual art language.
