Another nature
It feels like Mother Earth is taking revenge.
From January 2020 to December 2020 I had chosen to be in isolation, or residency if you like, in my own Copenhagen based studio. I had an inner voice that asked me to focus, and shut everything out. New brushes, and a ton of ideas, and silence, no deadlines, just ears and eyes on the canvas. I wanted to let nature speak, and wanted to develop on the stillleben movement, but still have anatomy as a focal point and keep the liveliness. Another nature started to grow in the studio. After a couple of months the pandemic came to Denmark, and it felt like my art already knew it was coming, and suddenly it felt like Mother Earth was taking revenge. The nature could breathe again, new horizons that had been hidden behind smog were visual, even the volcano experts that measure sound inside the earth said the Mother Earth was much more silent that ever before. The another nature series shows images of plants attacking humans, eating body parts or just grows next to each other in a new flora and fauna peacefully. Who knows, another nature may be rising right now outside your door?
