Hulda Guzmán: Meet me in the forest

16 Mar-14 Apr 2022

Stephen Friedman Gallery
London W1S 3LQ

Overview

Stephen Friedman Gallery will present Hulda Guzmán's first solo exhibition in the UK in the spring of 2022, after announcing her representation in October last year. The artist's paintings are populated by a technicolour cast of humans, animals, anthropomorphic plants and imaginary creatures. Employing distinct architectural locations and spatial tricks such as mise en abîme, her narratives occupy contradictory, dreamlike realities. Charged with postcolonial and ecological discourses, Guzmán’s paintings revitalise tropes of the natural world as a repository for our wilder instincts.
