I have since childhood, always drawn, painted and worked with images in various ways. While
growing up, the impressions from the immediate environment were producers of a "realistic" imagery that still lingers. Meanwhile at Gerlesborgsskolan I discovered a way to take the history of art into my painting on a meta level, i.e. both a comment to me in it and the history itself. At the same time I also began working more targeted with the visual world inspired by photo realism in which for me the perceived "reality" seems to play the main role. |
In the concrete spatial, the "true" if you so will, I'm amazed and seduced. A condition that seems to be the opposite of what the spatial represent. How is the so-called reality bound together with the "feelings of escapism" that eventually will have to declare their dependence on an objective world?
At the moment I search, or perhaps suffer from such images that with partially documentary methods seems to capture the everyday while its interpretation is kept pending and secret. Even for myself. |
