Minda Andrén

Minda Andrén (*1990, Sweden) lives and works in Vienna. Her work deals with intimacy, desire, well-being, and the body's relation to its surroundings. She explores the relationship of bodies to our surroundings through narrative and abstract portraits, examining alternative representations of the self in painting. Her painting questions images can provide in the face of changing technologies and ecology, and how images affect our perception of the self and identity. Andrén is influenced by a vast array of sources, from philosophy, cognitive science and literature.
