In a day and age where people have filled their lives with so many layers of meaningless objects that desperately crave their attention, we are in need to take the time to glance into this artists surrealistic window into the apathetic future of mankind.
By the use of digital photographic instruments we are manipulated into a world where man only exists together with his only true friend; his own complacent image. It depicts how the egotistical average man lives so unaffected by any issues but the ones concerning ones private agenda.
The artist’s strong roots in northern Norway come to show as he is naturally inspired by the Norwegian romantic nationalism era painters such as Eilert Adelsteen Normann and Hans Gude. And so it may only be appropriate that the artist himself has travelled around Europe to make every digital sketch much like his sources of inspiration did.
With concern to details and the use of light every story is transformed into a realistic digital canvas - and the viewers are transformed into a believable witness of the artist’s surrealistic future.
