For the second show in the new AGA Works space, Tørreloft presents Sónia Almeida & Magnus Frederik Clausen. In conversation in and around painting, the two artists take cue from its potential as container and content(s). The paintings take their form on paper, canvas, as fabric hangings, books, objects, clothing. They stand, hang, lie, move; some can we see, some we must initiate contact with and others packed in that we can only imagine. The paintings are vessels and have pockets, from which we can reach in and draw out, exploring tensions in image-making, both visual and physical.

The exhibition is accompanied by a zine produced by the artists, with a text by Barry Schwabsky and layout by Wrong Studio.
