85,5 x 85,5 cm: mixed media on wood panel. Black iron profile frame.
Available through Galleri Juul.
For this piece, I embraced the concept of repurposing, choosing a discarded door leaf from a recent property renovation as my canvas. The raw, iron frame serves as a bold counterpoint to the delicate textures within, its industrial strength framing the soft subtleties of concrete and rust extractions in the motif.
Had a good friend (and skilled blacksmith) weld a frame from a standard 50/50 angle profile in black iron.
Serendipity played its part in the creative process. An old piece of rope, discovered by chance in a heart shape on the road outside my studio, found its way into the composition. This unexpected element adds a touch of whimsy and connection to my immediate surroundings, bridging the gap between the grand narratives of time and the small, everyday moments that shape our world.
Through this work, I invite you to explore the beauty in decay, the stories in discarded objects, and the art in the overlooked details of our environment.
