Marie-Louise Ekman

With the theatre as her basic format, Marie-Louise Ekman has protrayed life in her own idiosyncratic fashion since the 1960s. In tight pictorial spaces with skewed one-point perspectives, she creates scenes where everyday rituals appear like absurd games and constructions. Between four walls and occasionnally a door or two, dreams, desires and disappointments are enacted in a heightened reality where roles and relationships continuously shift.
