Lena Schmid-Tupou
The things we see are as important
as the things we imagine, dream of or feel.
Works
Silfra
Remembered outlines of passing fields, rays of flashing light – an artistic meditation on temporality.
Lumen
A series of glass sculptures inspired by the paintings of Silfra and the ceramic sculptures of Landmannalaugar.
Interfaces
The exploration of the different landscapes, arranged in various compositions on canvas.
Exhibitions
It is a fine mystery and I tremble everyday lest something should turn up
05.06. – 19.07.2025
Galerie Hyle
Hamburg, Germany
This group exhibition features artist Lena Schmid-Tupou next to her colleagues Maria Visser and Elena Greta Falcini. The three artists are meeting for the second time in an exhibition. What qualities are needed to make such a collaboration, a joint exhibition, a productive and appreciative success? The focus is on the reason for the appreciative collaboration. Openness is key to accommodating differences.
Fragments of time
15.05. – 18.06.2025
Artothek Hannover
Hannover, Germany
Fragments of time will show two Series that Lena Schmid-Tupou created in recent years. Her series Memory and Kraziai. Both series dig deep into the realm of memory and imagination. They are an abstract visualisation of time.
Komorebi
01.04. – 27.08.2023
Kunstraum Walshausen
Bad Salzdetfurth, Germany
Translated from Japanese, Komorebi means the light that shines through the trees, in other words dappled light. In her series with the same name, Lena Schmid–Tupou works on the view one can experience through the trees in the winter months. The view is crossed by a tangle of branches. Komorebi takes up the theme of light and line.
