Kaja Stumpf (b. 1987, Norway) lives and works in London. Her recent work examines memory, self-representation, and the body as a landscape. She’s interested in the non-verbal coping mechanisms we apply in an attempt to deal with emotional needs and why we use our bodies as currency to communicate in a visual language to the outside world what we value and how we feel on the inside. She comes from a background in fashion, which impacts her understanding of the body in relation to the self and fuels her need to dig deeper into the ideas behind the exterior. Through painting, she revisits past experiences in an attempt to understand what shapes self-image and behaviour. Utilising staged images and the photographic family archive, she alters the colours to create a sense of delayed familiarity, and by applying a digitally inverted filter, a parallel scene is revealed.
