Artist's Commentary:
"If you love someone who looks like you, you are a reflection of a mountain in a pond. Like earth and sky lovers in ancient myths. Essentially you are different but you interaction is essential." Exploring queer connections to landscapes, the portals, caves, and bodily holes interchangeably represent a connection to the outside world which penetrates the bodies through sensory experiences. Contour drawings and loose paint handling allow blur between separate entities, both bodies and landscapes. Painted glass and wood cut in the shape of contour drawings hang casting shadows. The glass grounds of the paintings lend a skin-like quality to the paint and enhance the light reflection through brushwork creating the skin-like effect. The subversively sexual nature of the unclothed female body creates a sense of parodic gaze of fetishized landscapes which contradicts ideas of the brutality of abstract mark-making. While some landscape figures are painted on glass or wood, I paint on traditional linen canvas. Painted frames double as portals and signs with ideographic markings. The subversively sexual nature of the unclothed female body creates a sense of parodic gaze of fetishized landscapes which contradicts ideas of the brutality of abstract mark-making.

- Imbarcato, fuga in barca volanteLocated in Milano, MILooking at her works of art, at first sight one is amazed, because still unfamiliar, in front of her fantastic creativity. Her characters seem to come from "different" worlds, sometimes distant, other times hidden within us. They walk through the woods and meadows, they peer over the shores where the waves break in a continuous and unstoppable dialogue. Often very small, hiding among the blades of grass, but also huge figures, like the characters from the fairy tales of when we were children, naive and still "pure". Here, this purity of childhood is slowly and inexorably awakened in us by looking at the works of Carin Grudda...Category
