An intense, profound, and uncompromising contemporary painting from Rose Marie Brøgger's acclaimed series exploring meat iconography on unprimed raw canvas. Driven by pure intuition and an inner calling to examine the formal elements of painting itself, Brøgger strips the medium down to its most raw and visceral state.
The deep, marbled crimson and soft pink tones of the central form emerge with a rich, tactile presence against the natural linen backdrop. Operating as a powerful catalyst for thought and emotion, the composition prompts immediate reflections on morality, embodiment, and human mortality.
The iconography of a piece of flesh evokes strong emotional, political, spiritual, and philosophical responses, offering deep insights into ourselves and the contemporary era we inhabit. This captivating medium-sized masterwork effortlessly blends raw figurative realism with existential inquiry, bringing a commanding, thought-provoking presence to modern interior spaces.
Copenhagen based artist Rose Marie Brøgger is a graduate from the Graphic Arts College in Denmark. She works in acrylic paintings on canvas and in digital art printmaking.
Brøgger’s work has themes of transcendence, spirituality, existence, materiality and phenomena. She explores earthly objects and surreal supernatural objects in a simplistic dreamlike yet powerful imagery.
The motives often have the character of being material or composed of matter.
She presents a complex understanding and respect for the elements surrounding us. She has a way of portraying an object that makes it absurd in spite of its actual existence.
The use of dimensions, symmetry and the space within, between, and around objects recurs in her imagery.
Her pieces have a sense of relevance or significance to the now, and she often uses iconography as an examination of our current state of mind. The pieces are in themselves a study of the communication between the artwork and the viewer of a given society, dependent on cultural context.
