Camilla Engström,
‘Mantle’ @
König Galerie
—
“Channeling
both the erotic
charge of Georgia
O’Keeffe and the
spiritual vigour
of fellow Swede,
Hilma af Klint...”
Born:
1989 — Örebro,
Sweden.
Based:
Los Angeles (CA),
United States.
‘Mantle’:
For her first solo
exhibition with
König, Engström
has created five
new oil-on-canvas
paintings that
showcase her
characteristic trippy,
hallucinogenic palette
and voluptuous
curving forms in
sorbet-coloured
hues.
“There is a warmth
& quiet stillness
in all of the works,
reflecting Engström’s
long-standing
meditation practice.
She refers to
herself as a mostly
self-taught artist,
having previously
studied fashion,
making her way to
the canvas mostly
through drawing.”
