In Olga Antonova’s paintings, there is something uncanny going on. She paints lines convoluting into each other again and again, culminating in an imposing buildup of a faceless mass that pushes against the very border of the canvas. In the end, it’s about the individual lines that don’t know where they came from or where they are going. It’s a hidden history of individualism in a clusterfuck of high collective tensions. These lines want so desperately to break free. But listen yourself.
