Anna Solal
(b. 1988, FR)
Solal’s assembles are made of trash cut-outs, decontextualizing elements of industrial objects and sewing them back together; her production often includes drawings and results are dirty and tender, carefully nestled shapes, often recalling advertising symbols that leverage on collective imagination to be identified and on metaphysic composition to be reinterpreted. Solal’s weaves together pop and survivalist features, producing mysterious objects: every structure is a compromise between naive figuration and total abstraction. Her work has been exhibited at: Olso10 (Basel), Art-O-rama (Marseille), Room E 10 27, New Galerie and 63rd77thsteps (Paris), Museo Experimental El Eco (Mexico City), Rijksakademie (Amsterdam), Diesel Project Space (Liege), Island and The Ister (Brussels). Lives and works in Paris. www.annasolal.com
