Anja Salonen is a visual artist based in Los Angeles whose work splices classical oil painting technique with the visual language of digital imagery, airbrush, and electric light to consider how painting functions in image culture today. Salonen has merged interests in formal rendering and color theory with contemporary aesthetics and esoteric imaginaries, creating visions of clashing perspectives where unseen connections are realized and uncanny realms are rendered material. Her world-building process resembles digital collage, drawing from art historical, ecological, and biotechnological imagery to construct complex scenes of eco-horror and ecstatic sensuality. The paintings are scorched with the acidic colors of chemical contamination, paradoxical spatial relationships and porous representations of the figure, with bodies in slippery relation to their environments.
