martine poppe taps a classic nordic fairytale for her magical landscapes 2652649

Norwegian artist Martine Poppe has opened a new solo exhibition titled "East of the Sun West of the Moon" at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery in London. The show draws on a classic Nordic fairytale as a conceptual starting point, blending memory, nature, and landscape painting. Poppe uses photographs taken over the past decade as source material, transforming them into atmospheric compositions that blur the line between reality and fiction. The exhibition explores themes of freedom, distance, and the mystical wildness of the natural world, inspired by both her childhood experiences and influences from Japanese woodblock prints and 19th- and 20th-century Western artists.
