The Twilight of the Analog World

Twilight. This is the key word to understand the Swedish artist Sigrid Sandström. “Dusk” for Sandström is that moment in which the light folds back on itself, retreating just enough to leave room for something more significant. A concept transferred to the canvas where her paintings are veiled by a glaucous and furtive shine, the blues and anthracite grays dissolve into misty and melancholic tones, dragging the observer into a slower and more thoughtful temporal landscape. An art that takes us back to the world of childhood immersed in the Nordic wilderness, a reality where modernity is implacably superimposed on the light of candles and nature.
