Anne Jungjohann’s practice is an act of resistance against the tyranny of the canvas. Her subtly inflected works are 3-dimensional paintings, sculptures made from canvas. ‘We do not see the world in straight rectangular lines, so why must artists’ representations of the world be delimited by these dimensions?’, the artist asks us in every work she creates. Literally thinking outside the box, Jungjohann folds her painted canvases into forms she installs in dialogue with the spacial architecture.
