About Interpreting Discomfort Oljemaleriserie

Å tolke ubehag er en serie oljemalerier om personlig rom og sosialt press. Verkene viser hender og øyne i iscenesatte scener som gjenskaper hverdagslige øyeblikk av uro. Omsorgsfulle handlinger kan bringe mennesker nærmere hverandre, men for mye oppmerksomhet kan også skape ubehag. Maleriene kombinerer to teknikker. Indirekte maleteknikk bygger opp en svart-hvit base som deretter glaseres med farge. Direkte maleteknikk påfører blandet farge rett på overflaten. Serien er laget med oljemaling på lerret og trepanel, og den vises i gallerier som et utgangspunkt for samtale.
