Inside the studio of Mimmo Haraditiohadi there are drawings of Christmas trees smoking pipes, tiny wooden houses, and swatches of paint. While reflecting on the artist’s work for the Studio Scene column, Otto Bonnen writes of seeing “Der Sägefisch” (2023), 2consisting of three paintings of sawfish, each canvas holding a single fish’s snout and head against its own color field: a cold gray-blue, an acid yellow-green, and a bruised violet-pink.” He points out that the artist’s goal was not to recreate the fish in its reality, but to depict an idea, a thought, of the thing as it arose in the mind.
