Hand-signed, numbered // Mamma Andersson’s 'Mother's Day' is a 2013 etching that conveys a quiet, contemplative atmosphere through its depiction of a solitary landscape. The artwork presents a scene dominated by a forest, its trees receding into the distance, shrouded in a hazy mist. In the foreground stands a statue on a pedestal, its back turned to the viewer, adding an enigmatic presence to the scene. The statue appears to gaze into the wooded area, evoking themes of memory, reflection, and solitude. The earthy reddish-brown terrain contrasts with the muted greens of the trees, grounding the image and adding a sense of age and timelessness. Andersson’s use of space and muted tones create a tranquil yet slightly haunting atmosphere, inviting reflection on the passage of time and the quietude of nature.
