Contemporary, naturalistic oil painting made by Danish artist Bente Ørum in 2014.
The girl and the wolf in the picture have a special relationship. The symbolic meaning of Grimm’s fairy tale about Little Red Riding Hood has had many interpretations. This is another contribution.
About the artist: Bente Ørum's paintings are figurative, often with a hint of surrealism. The paintings deal with people, their feelings and the challenges they have, the problems they meet.
It is important for Bente Ørum that the painting causes the viewer to wonder what is really going on? The painting tells a story, but is not unambiguous. Different viewers will read different stories into the painting and there is no one story that is correct. Bente Ørum has painted since 2005 and has exhibited at different places, in 2018 at Porsebakken and Art-Nordic in Copenhagen.
