Dreams. Under. series

The work is purchased by Lillesand kommune, for “Dovreheim”, home for elderly in Norway.

Two of forks in the series at cafe Vågal in Bergen.

These works are from the series Dreams. Under. It is a series of 4 works with inspiration from my dreams, and the unconscious images that I tried to recall over sometime. They are woven in layers with big yarn floats in an attempt to depict the layers of the “inner” images, where there is something behind, but you can not see it clearly. 

As my sight is damaged sometimes when I close my eyes I can see these “floating” images of colours and transparency. In a way, it is almost an impossible job to “reproduce” it, but the experience is so extraordinary that I have decided to give it a chance and translate it into woven images.
