Isabel Berglund & Kristian Devantier: In a Puzzle
Formation Gallery is pleased to be able to present the exhibition In a Puzzle by the artist couple Isabel Berglund and Kristian Devantier 鈥� a dialogue between the figurative and the abstract.
The two artists not only share a studio but also form a couple privately. Their exhibition In a Puzzle draws parallels to how we as humans create and build relationships and collaborate. Like a big joint puzzle pieced together by similarities, differences, compromises, love, play, and seriousness.
For several years, Isabel Berglund and Kristian Devantier have each worked as artists. Isabel is particularly known for works that unfold as sculptural hybrids, where knitwear meets other textiles or sculptural objects that rise, hang, or float. Isabel's works imitate forms we know, other of her works dissolve the recognizable and hover somewhere between form and dissolution of form. Isabel pushes our understanding of sculpture and what knitting can do.
In a Puzzle takes Isabel & Kristian's artistic collaboration to a new level, creating visual objects, mobiles, and collages that define a new aesthetic starting point, where the negative and positive forms complement each other - like a deconstructed puzzle that comes together in a new and surprising way.
