Moving Like An Antique Lizard - Surrounded by Shifting Shapes (044)About the artist
Anna Fro Vodder (b. 1974 in Denmark) lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Vodder works in a space where form, color, paint, and other materialities meet and enter the image on equal terms. She inserts materials into an open system, often combining paint with elements that reference both craft traditions and found, everyday materials. Vodder allows traditional feminine and masculine traits to intersect. Impulses, traces, imprints, associative chains, and processual flows are central to Vodder’s practice. Her works often carry a poetic sensitivity and are characterized by formal leaps that are rich in content and meaning.
