I love her hiding obsession too.
I saw her work in the image and after exhibition at the kiasma in Helsinki:
Anne Karin Furunes: (below)
The first painting I had seen of the Furunes was a large painting (or the absence of) of a dead woman called Rita Roos. I loved her articulation of the subject through the materiality. instead of painting the portait on the board, she has cut it out. So a series of strategically drilled holes in the board form an image of the subject, but show her missing, like in death.
I am obsessed with temporal sculpture at the moment and can't wait to start getting started after august. I think Furunes work uses materiality and it's application to question the temporality of the subject and nature of portraiture/representation
