Figures, bodies, embodiments. A trip down art history. Tattooed stories, hieroglyphs and couples copulating. It’s is a rich world Leo Park gives us, filled with humour.
From the exhibition text :
“Leo Park sources motifs and stylistic influence from art history and fuses them with pop cultural references to form a figurative style of painting that is undoubtedly contemporary yet relatable in its connection to artistic traditions. His visual world is inhabited by well-known myths and tropes in which themes such as desire, creation and death are explored.”
Leo Park (b. 1980) works and lives in Stockholm. He holds an MFA from Konstfack College of Arts, Craft and Design. Park has taken place in several shows as both artist and curator as well as completed public decorations in Sweden and abroad. Selected Works 2017-2021 was released at his solo show Sommaren är kort / Summer Is Swift at Gallery Steinsland Berliner in the spring of 2021.
