Dear or alive I Painting

The funeral This painting is a study of the theme, “dead or alive”, a small series made soon after losing a loved one. In contrast to the figure of death, I choose life. I work in layers. The three layers each represent a moment in life. 1st layer A map of the world. When a child is born we say, ”he was brought to the world this night” and later “he has left the world this morning”. The light blue map is symbolic of the place where we spend our time during life. 2nd Mourning figures 3rd layer Is a red trace. An electrocardiogram, that shows in a very exact way whether there is life or not. The painting is representing life. The red trace is started and life begins. The figures in the background are still in a mourning process. The figures in front are through the process and ready to “face life again”. I have used more or less only the green colour to symbolize “hope”. Original art work, oil and tempera on canvas. Gallery wrapped and stretched on a 2 cm deep stretcher frame, the edges are painted. Shipped stretched and ready to hang.
