Heidi Ukkonen & Lysandre Begijn.

A selection of works from artist Heidi Ukkonen & Lysandre Begijn that were recently on view in “Suspirium” at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England.

The title “Suspirium” refers to a deep breath or sigh, in this case perhaps, a sigh of relief or existential boredom. Taken from the Thom Yorke song of the same name, the works maintain the same sombre mood of the track. “If you look at my masks or faces, they are all sad, bored, anxious, bewildered and I think ‘suspirium’ fits the works very well.. It's like a state of mind of our generation, a mirror,” Lysandre Begijn tells us. We’re greeted unavoidably by her woefully sad faces, their tiny high-pitched wails for help or salvation almost audible as you get close enough to see their pained expressions. Hair or foliage, roots maybe, fall beside their faces, mirroring the tears, anguished brows and pursed lips, anchoring them to their distress. Given the anxiety of the modern world - global pandemics, inflated living costs and impending world wars - it’s easy to sympathize with them.

HEIDI UKKONEN @ukkon Exhibition: Only Foxes Get Married In The Rain Gallerists Sofie Van de Velde & Jason Poirier dit Caulier started their art collection in their twenties. By collecting smaller artworks from different artists, their collection became an eclectic mix of sizes and colors. Imagine paintings, drawings, photographs and editions hanging criss-cross on the wall. They called their WUNDERWALL. ​ In their gallery space, they reserve the central wall mainly for artists who are not (yet) bound to a gallery, to show their recent works. This Wunderwall project forms the common ground between emerging artists, who are looking for visibility, and young collectors, who are looking for new discoveries. @ukkon @ralfkokke and @da.noro had a group exhibition ‘Only Foxes Get Married In The Rain’ 7th at @thewunderwall opening 7th March just a week before lockdown, and due to advances against the pandemic will be able to reopen the gallery via appointment. . #HeidiUkkonen #thewunderwall #painting (en The Wunderwall) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAFS2wtl0zX/?igshid=1rhpwe9yfzhr9
