Fredric Gunve

“I am a scientist looking for the cure against despair.”!Fredric Gunve is not an artist. He is more than that. He is a conglomerate of different times, different philosophies and art histories. He is a multi global universal, and at the same time an extremely local artist. He has an endemic passion for all kinds of flowers and sometimes he carries these with him to balance the fear for the uncanny nature that threatens our urban spaces. He also has a devotion to cosmology, which demonstrates itself in his performances and installation pieces. He uses his fascination of space by integrating apocalyptic narrations and alternative life forms, which incorporate elements of mythology and a fear, and fascination for the unknown, into his work. Fredric Gunve is a neo futurist. (text by Sinziana Ravini)a
