Magdalena Lamri’s Figurative Paintings Are Evocative And Beautiful

moray mair | Art and design | October 19, 2012

Magdalena Lamri‘s paintings are evocative and beautiful and remind me of the work of the late Lucian Freud and the exciting British painter Jenny Saville. Lamri’s representation of flesh in her mixed media figurative paintings is so vital, so rich, her soft palette managing to offset the strangeness of her compositions that often involve stags, deer and rabbits, the two sometimes morphing into strange hybrids.

When I found her paintings I went and checked her site out and found the oddest statement about her work:

Wrapped in a cocoon spooky, the young artist Magdalena Lamri
tirelessly pursues her questions on filing …
Representation of body and flesh …
Cabinets of curiosities and curious of all kinds …

Via Empty Kingdom
