Lulu Kaalund: My So-Called Life

20 jan 202325 feb 2023

Named after the artist’s favorite 90’s TV-show, Lulu Kaalund’s second solo exhibition with V1 Gallery & Eighteen is a visual, abstract diary. The works were made at home, in restaurants, airports, bars, nightclubs and hotel lobbies. Never planning in advance, Kallund’s works grow from a few stitches into sprawling pieces guided by little else but intuition and the will and desire to create. Stiches become rows and rows become material witnesses to places, people, moods, events, and to the passing time itself. In and out of control, teen protagonist Angela Chase’ eminently relatable narrative in My So-Called Life rounds off the exhibition as an allegorical mirror for the artist’s own autobiographical process, a so-called life indeed.
