Rich Landscapes
Roger Metto, Cryosphereat Bildmuseet, Umeå
Impressive mountain chains, deep valleys and roaring skies resembling nature, but far too abstract and imaginary than any exact study. Metto is a master of colour, working feely with the paint to capture fantasies of great adventurers. He captures the smallness of the human body, in relation to the vastness of nature. Metto was born in Kiruna, and today he resides in Stockholm. This display shows work which also reference his childhood memories growing up in the North. Metto is represented by Galleri Thomassen, Gothenbourg.
