essensen
Det er som at male et abstrakt 3-dimensionelt maleri og begynder ved fundet af et stykke bortkastet, rustent jern som med sin smukke farve insisterer på at blive samlet op og hjembragt til den bunke "gammelt jern" jeg efterånden har fået samlet.
Nogle metaldele fortæller tydeligere end andre en historie om en tidligere funktion , som en del af en maskine eller et landbrugsredskab.
Nu får det ny betydning, sammensvejset med andre metalstykker til en skulptur.
Mine skulpturer er som oftest abstrakte og inviterer beskueren ind i et samvær hvor såvel skulpturens udtryk som beskuerens holdninger er i spil.
Jeg vælger den enkle komposition som giver flere fortolkningsmuligheder men nu og da dukker mere figurative kompositioner op, herunder associerende til fugle..
Jeg plejede at male skulpturerne i forskellige farver - oftest sort, men er efterhånden blevet bevidst om, at de bliver det mest ærlige udtryk for hvem jeg oprindeligt er, når de fremstår i den fundne tilstand.
Skulpturerne kan efter aftale
genskabes i større format. et stykke
De små skulpturer koster
2-4000 kr.
the essence
It's like painting an abstract 3-dimensional picture and starts by the finding of a piece of wasted iron, appealing with its peculiar shape and
beautiful color to be picked up and brought home to the pile of "old iron" that I have gradually collected.
Some metal parts tell more clearly than others a history about former function as for instance
part of a machine or an agricultural tool.
Now they are taking on new meaning, being welded together with other pieces of metal into
a sculpture.
My sculptures are mostly abstract, inviting
the viewer into a get-together, where both
the expression of the sculpture and the viewer's
attitude are playing together.
I go for the simple composition which
provides more possibilities of interpretation and opens up for free association but on occasion more figurative compositions emerge.
I used to paint the sculptures in different colors
- most often black - but have gradually become
aware that they are more honestly expressing
the person I originally am if they appear in the found condition.
The sculptures may, by appointment
be delivered on a larger scale
The prices of the small artworks
range from 3-600 $/230-4
