  • New works by Elin Bengtsson

     

    Opening: Sunday Oct 14th, 4-8 PM

    Elin Bengtsson spent her first 28 years in the forests of Sweden, which left her with a dark mind, good skin and a BFA from Valand School of Fine Arts. For the last two and a half years she has been adjusting to the California air and adding an MFA from The San Francisco Art Institute to the list, while staying true to her ominous northern subject matter.

     

    At the ATA space Elin will be showing new small-scale work on paper.
