Bio
Astrid Barfod, who goes by Suequi Natt online, is a Uruguayan artist born to Swedish parents. She trained under renowned artists Clever Lara and Dante Picarelli. Her career began focused on figurative art, driven by a deep passion for the human figure and a keen interest in the workings of the mind. Over time, her artistic path shifted towards abstract expression, where she found the freedom to develop her own distinct style. This new direction allowed her to transcend traditional forms, creating a psychological landscape that evokes both the symbolic and the dreamlike. Her work captures the complexity of thought and emotion, resonating with Nietzsche’s belief that art unveils deeper truths beneath surface reality.
Through her abstract work, Astrid establishes a more personal connection to her inner world, engaging with universal emotions in a subtle way. Utilizing mixed media techniques—acrylic, ink, oil, and collage—her work invites viewers to explore intricate layers and details that enhance their symbolic richness.
Her art draws from contrasts, blending structure and emotion to provide insightful perspectives on the human experience. By navigating the interplay between order and chaos, clarity and complexity, Astrid’s body of work stands as a deeply expressive, multifaceted exploration of artistic and emotional depth.
