Henni Alftan
Frederick Hammersley Artist Residency at Tamarind

Finnish-born, Paris-based painter Henni Alftan is the recipient of the 2021 Frederick Hammersley Artist Residency at Tamarind. Alftan is relatively new to collaborative printmaking and the extended residency provided the opportunity to explore the unique qualities of lithography. The three elegant prints she created during her residency explore ideas of time, movement, simultaneity, transparency, and the essential language of ink on paper.

Alftan is an accomplished painter who draws upon the inherent tension of a fragmented narrative. Her deliberately spare compositions emphasize the artificiality of painting and its materiality, as rendered through exquisite details of physical form and texture. Much of her work centers on domestic space and everyday life, yet her tightly framed figurative subjects are defined through equal measures of exacting description and abstraction.
