My aim is to obtain a slow, yet powerful vibration of altering light and dark.
I was studying textile art at The National College of Art and Design in Denmark from 1981-1985, and I worked in Copenhagen , the capital of Denmark for several years, before returning to Oslo where I was teaching at the National college of Art and Design in the textile and fashion department. In 1996 I finished an master degree at the National College of Applied Art and Design in Bergen, Norway.
I am working in wool and integrated principles for dying and artistic expression. My intention is to create monumental and strictness in order to obtain a fusion with architectures basic principles. What characterises m artistic production is first and foremost the search for ways of creating different light effects and volume in the plane, to create optical. I do what I have to do to minimise disturbing elements, only concentrating on plane, space and light. The play of colour values, ranging from dark to the original white wool material, values in light and shadows, can be obtained by dyeing or simply by twisting the material.
