Be-Longing 

Putting Human Relations onto a Canvas, with and without Words. 
Shapes and Artistic Style showing Glimpses of Human Longings, of Human Communication, Human Bonding, Communication with Others, Communication through Body Language, Reaching Out, Feelings, Loneliness, Freedom.

It's a private view on humans' personal fears and longings, of those seeking contact, of those being isolated, of those in long term relations, of new lovers, of souls speaking to other souls. With a language beyond words, with an artistic language beyond form and style. Capturing feelings, desires, fears in paintings, . 

A mixup of knowledge, from studying relationships between humans with the lens of my profession as a scientist, conducting sociological and psychological research for 20 years, the ongoing confusion despite and because of an educational scientific background. 



 

Put together with endless curiosity and love to human relations, to glimpses and moments in daily lives, in the eyes of the others, in the outer world that I can smell and feels and see, and the inner wolrd, I can relate to.

Be - to be, not to be, part of it all, to be part of the world, the longing , to belong, to be seen, to be heard, and to get some reaction. From others, from me, from you. That's the theme of this series.

Environmental Crush'down

The kind of environment that is truely suitable for a human soul, a human society - It's a dream.  It's love, so far away, it's rather a crush. Far away from the environment we live in, suitable for computer designs, for straight, narrow minded ideas of personal ownerships and consume. Far away from organic forms, from reduced waste of energy, from openness towards neighbours, strangers and towards child- and humanfriendly spaces.
.  

 

And then, there's nature, consuming everything, overgrowing all human made construction. There's water, air, soil. There's the weather. 

There's the endess power of nature. Fires,  heatwaves, rain, tornados, sunshine.

Series: Internal Setup

  (GWN-Series 1/24) 

Muddy Waters

Good Enough

 

The society of the year 2024 with that constant need for personification,  the need for each one to re-evaluate, to evaluate what the heck we are, why, and how many, the need to make things better, to make oneself better, to makes oneself more perfect, the feeling never to be there, maybe never good enough... 
Still, there are these internal places to find peace, to calm down, to breath, to befriend yourself.

The One

What's that - being an artist? 
What kind of self-description, what kind of longing, routine?
How does it start and where does it end?
Artist - an art maker, like a d'yer maker?

Series: My Beast

  (GWN-Series 5/23) 

 

Being accompanied by a Beast - somdeays friendly, somedays scary, but always on my side. Keeping me secure. 
 

My beast is changing it's shape, it's form, its size, it's colour.
Sometimes like a dog on the long leash. Somedays like a hellhound. And then like a puppet, smooth and lovely. 
But alsways: My beast is keeping me company.
