Her practice shares no central formula, and instead functions as part of a whole that provides insight into her personal history and political ethos and interest in the possibility of painting as medium and in relation to the exhibition space.

”Lina Bjernelds måleriska sökande för henne genom de personliga associationernas och berättelsernas landskap. Motiviskt rör hon sig mellan uttryckets ytterligheter, utan att förlora sitt konstnärliga fingeravtryck. De sällsamheter och poetiska frestelser som måleriet bjuder tar hon varsamt tillvara och placerar sedan de olika verken I kärv lust I en dialog som även innefattar rummet.”
