Behind the scene

Breakthrough - 2022

The material used in this piece is very special as it is fabric used for dancers, skaters etc to imitate skin. It holds great symbolisme and it covers the entire canvas. It has been stained with ink and stretched over a sheer and shiny back. This gives it the impression of changing form depending on where you see it from. Sometimes opaque and like marble, other times it seems to become liquide and ripple like on the surface of water. The inner circle is made of clay and different kinds of string. The branch like shapes are wire wrapped with string, pushing hard against the skin-like fabric to break through it.
