The 5th Base Gallery

Solo exhibition

London

Oil on canvas

In her work we can see how cultures universally transgress through time and space. The values of art are conditioned by strength of impact and a multifaceted dialogue but it is also an unobtrusive message. It is through this that the viewer can find subjective values, hidden in the play of light and colour, allowing the viewer to move into a different dimension of reality.

For her inaugural show MATTI SU will be presenting an abstract oil painting, never seen before. The exhibition will be a set of varied format paintings depicting the world as a never ending fight between human sinful nature and absolute desire. Abstract compositions embed the tension between red and blue, lust and longing, and the temporary of the human body and infinity.

MATTI SU lives and works in London. Currently doing a PhD at the Academy of Fine Arts. The subject of her research is “SPIRITUALITY IN ART. ABSOLUTE DESIRE”. In her work she connects consumerism with psychology, such as Jung and Freud, but also uses theories of the parallel worlds of Hugh Everett, along with the philosophy of Berkeley and Leibniz.
