Gunga

Maxim Gunga, Missing Link, Installation View, Robert Grunenberg, Berlin, 2024

was born in Berlin, (DE), in 1994 and lives and works there.

In his intensely luminous, often large-format oil paintings, Berlin-based artist Maxim Gunga creates a visionary yet everyday cosmos in which everything is infused with the same universal life energy.
There are no clear hierarchies between inner and outer experience, body and soul, civilisation and wilderness. The city is an ‘amorphous landscape’, as one of Gunga’s paintings is titled: natural and organic structures blend together to form fantastic hybrid architectures and bodies.
These urban landscapes often explore transition – from centre to periphery, from cell to whole organism, from ‘subculture’ to ‘mass culture’, from the profane or precarious to the sacred.
