We live in a time of climate change, wars, LGBT rights and inequality. We can discuss all these issues through art and spread awareness about them, but at the core of all these problems we are facing is human psychology. Mack’s work questions the needs and desires of humans which create the chaos we live in. Society is a shared reality. Our interaction, group dynamics, desires and expectations are the pieces of the puzzle of how we see our-self and interact with the people around us. Mack’s paintings are based on personal experiences, she observes and tries to understand her surroundings. Questioning her existence and how she relates, compares and differs from others. How she, as an individual, fits within the shared reality of society. Her works are about seeing, understanding and reorganizing people in a storytelling structure. With a compositional rhythm, she carefully places individuals in a narrative reflecting human emotions of loneliness, ambition and invisibility. Mack comes from a background in sculpture, photography and film. She’s inspired by street-art, literature, philosophy and sociology. For more info click here.

HAPPENING NOW:
Women house @ndsm fuse / 16 may-19 July / Thursday-Sunday / 12.00-18.00
The starting point of my work is observing people, capturing their image and create compositions reflecting society. A large part of this process takes place on the street. Observing the beauty of reality, not escaping into an illusion or fantasy. New techniques and materials have introduced me to working with shadows and light/ invisibility and visibility / negative space revealing people / people disappearing into folds.
