The Luxembourg artist Tina Gillen works primarily in the medium of painting and explores how we relate to the world around us, particularly with regard to landscape and architecture. Her paintings are often based on photographs, which she alters, simplifies, figuratively ‘translates’ and combines with other elements to create compositions that deliberately promote a certain ambiguity between abstraction and figuration, between the surface of the canvas and the translation of a space. Her solo exhibition at Galerie Nosbaum Reding in Luxembourg City is entitled ‘Nailing colours to the mast’ and can be seen until 9 November.
