de Mannor, Veronica - This Is Devotion PAINTING

40x50cm
Mixed media, mixed technique
2025

In my work, I address the idea of dedication through a green humanoid figure. These green figures living in a dystopian world are frequently glimpsed in my work and they often embody diverse human thoughts and emotions. In this work, my character has been given a costume of roots & dwarves, as the behavior and world of mushrooms embodies the powers of nature in a very unique way while also acting as an excellent metaphor for dedication.

Veronica de Mannor is a self-taught young artist from Lohja who has worked in many different fields of art during her life. After receiving a PTSD diagnosis, Veronica has focused mainly on visual arts and photography. Acrylics and mixed media are often used as tools in the realization of her works. However, De Mannor does not want to completely bind herself to one art form; in the future she is interested in expanding her artistic work to, for example, the areas of fashion, performance and poetry.

Curators' comments: "Veronica De Mannor presents beauty and gloom in the same package – and evokes many different emotions. The works are very personal to the artist, but they will certainly also touch every viewer."
