Siri Wego

Siri Wego’s journey has moved from recognizable, figurative painting toward an increasingly abstract expression. Figurative elements can still be found in most of the works, whether they are based on a landscape or are purely symbolic.
The paintings often bear the mark of playful, fearless experimentation and an exploration of light and color.
Thorough preparatory work with structures in the underpainting creates an intriguing surface texture and a sense of technical skill.

Above all, Siri Wego emphasizes symbolism and light. It is longing, “the inner landscape,” that gradually comes to dominate, and the form is abstract.

With her clearly Christian standpoint, the attraction toward light in her paintings has a direction: a search inward toward the center of existence, the mystery of God. It is from this source that she draws inspiration, courage for life, and energy. That is why there is something authentic, deeply personally experienced, that one senses in Siri Wego’s paintings.
