Andreas Eriksson (born 1975) builds visual structures by means of blocks, layers and brushstrokes, which can be interpreted as so many ways of experiencing the world. Geological strata, minerals, moss, leaves or bark… His paintings are superimpositions of materiality, accumulations of energy and time in varied densities and forms. His art is fundamentally tied to one and the same place: Medelplana, in south-western Sweden, near Lake Vänern. The earthy, saturated colours of his paintings come from the landscapes that surround his home and make up his everyday life.
Facing Andreas Eriksson's monumental paintings are displayed about a dozen small-format works by Ivan Aguéli, painter and mystic born in 1869 and died in 1917.
