" ... Stray's exploration of gender, identity, and the human experience is subtly interwoven within each brushstroke. While gender is not the explicit focus, it emerges as an implicit element, inviting contemplation and challenging preconceived notions of the nude in art.Passionate and gestural, Stray's artistic approach captivates the viewer."
Extracted from Press Release "In the Flesh" Galleri Fjalar, June 2023
“ Torild Stray is a painter of materiality and immateriality. She paints the ethereal presence of people. Her images of humans are never what they seem. Ordinary is not her vocabulary. Auras of the intangible are suspended invisibly near real and tangible figures and objects. Stray´s search for the perceptual contains an imagination of the spiritual. She paints obsessively, with a passion, for the unattainable presence of a tenuous world. She is a true painter. ”
