The original work of two innovative and talented Swedish fine artists, Kerstin Lundin and Henrik Sjöström, will be on display in their exhibit, Idiosyncratic Expressions.

The exhibition opens October 14, 2016 and run through November 3, 2016 with an opening reception on Thursday, October 20 from 6-8 PM.
Any art lover who enjoys thought-provoking artworks and meeting talented and interesting artists is encouraged to attend.

Idiosyncratic Expressions is a group exhibition featuring 14 artists who look at the world and see something fantastic, in every sense of the word. Idiosyncratic Expressions offers the entire range of observational to surreal to non-representational, in painting and sculpture. One participant offers an extreme close-up of figures and the things they leave behind – clothing, boats, flowers arranged in vases – at angles no one could achieve naturally. Another depicts pure textures floating through space in a novel three-dimensional use of paint. Still another paints scenes that can never be: a unicorn lying at a woman’s feet, or a watering hole full of animals in the middle of a city street. Though their creators come from all around the globe and all levels of artistic education, the works in this exhibition share boldness of color, subject matter, and purpose. Each artist’s perspective is unique and highly personal to their own experience.

Kerstin Lundin currently lives and works in Taby, outside of Stockholm, Sweden.
Sjöström was born in Stockholm, Sweden and today lives and works in Sipoo, Finland. He has exhibited all around both countries as well as in the United States.
