Karin Mamma Andersson

Karin Mamma Andersson (Born 1962) is active/lives in Sweden.  Karin Andersson is known for Whimsical, disorderly-seeming paintings of figures, interiors, landscapes, genre.

The work of Swedish artist Mamma Andersson often draws inspiration from a wide range of archival photographic source materials, filmic imagery, theater sets, and period interiors. Her paintings employ a broad range of techniques, deftly shifting between stark graphic lines to loose washes and thickly rendered brushstrokes. With their richly detailed and complex surfaces, the artist's works stand as a testament to her deep engagement with the painterly process itself.

Her evocative use of pictorial space conveys a sense of timelessness, which is further enhanced by a conspicuous absence of contemporary signifiers. Her subject matter frequently revolves around melancholic landscapes and nondescript, private interiors; yet when human figures are included, a narrative is never explicit.

Andersson was born in 1962 in Luleå, Sweden. She studied from 1986 to 1993 at the Royal University College of Fine Arts in Stockholm, where she continues to live and work.
