About The Artwork

In most of my art I found ways to break the limitation of the artwork itself. Here I did a sketch that had more than this picture, and then I cut out a section that would be most vibrant, and at the same time could tell a story about something more than the painting itself. The heads on the lower part of the picture reminded me about the Easter Island heads, but as I never make a replica from 'real life', I have called the island here for Ice-ter Island. Maybe Ice-ter Island exists in a parallel world, I'm not sure. What I am sure about though, is that this is the Ice-ter Island. PS - the sun is here as well, but some vice person once said that the moon was more important, as it gave light during the night. In the day where we can see the sun, it's light anyway ... For me with more than thirty years painting with acrylic paint on large canvases, standing in my studio mixing pigments with PVA (polyvinyl acetate) base - I work basically the same way when painting digital as I did with my large radiator brushes on linen canvas. Of course it's not exactly the same to paint with acrylic paint as painting digital, but the difference is not greater than working with oil paint. So acrylic painting with pigments and PVA, oil painting with turpentine and it's slow drying process, or my digital painting with my Corel Painters brushes on Wacom Cintiq drawing board - they are all just different types of painting with their own different features. Fact is that digital painting with what is the right tools for me, give me a larger artistic freedom compared to oil or acrylic. So my reason for painting digital is not the technique or tools in itself, but the larger artistic freedom I get. This Limited Edition of only 8 Fine Art print in Museum Quality, is made in co-operation with an art printer with long experience from both analog and digital Fine Art printing. Art printing with Giclée pigment print on paper from the historical papermaker Hahnemühle who got an uninterrupted tradition of quality papermaking since 1584. This limited edition use a DigiSeed Certificate. This mean that 8 digital files are individually signed and numbered from 1/8 to 8/8. Each numbered file is only printed once, and then sent the buyer for a security backup of the artwork, and more. I destroy the file after the buyer confirmed it's arrived. See http://digiseed.org for more information.

From international artprojects, one-man shows, group exhibitions and as a curator for a artist led gallery - I moved away from the western art scene. Lived in a country with five thousand years of art history, and with contemporary egyptian artists for nearly fourteen years. Today my art is less an reaction, and more an interaction. *********MY_ART_STYLe**************** My first exhibitions was very much part "the New Wild", an art expression today often defined as neo-expressionism. Still, I was part of performance art projects, and an art critic once said that I "use figuartion as an excuse to paint abstract" - and yes, that's pretty true as well. *********DEVELOPING_MY_ARt******** Apart from working in the wave of "Heftiges Maleri", performance as curating, I have never used photo in my artworks, but included photographers in my art projects. My take on photography has been from documenting polaroid photos with their frames on canvas, to the painted serial "unsuccessful family photos". After this serial I did a number of paintings (on canvas) where one of the main focus was to cut a motive so much that the viewer had to imagine what was outside the frame. *********POST_ANALOG_ARt************ Most of my time the last ten years had been to develop and personalise an "post analog" art expression. "Post analog" is normally what's called digital painting and drawing, and it's first of all a tool. Still those who have been working in oil on canvas, have to learn a new way to work to get the best out of acrylic paintings (- and vice versa). It's no difference with digital art, as one can't take the experience of analog painting (as painting on canvas) directly over to post analog media. I still have the same way I express myself through art, but it took a many, many years before I could say that I was able to create art as freely in a post analog media as I did in my studio on canvas. *********DIGISEED_ARt*************** After having found the new post analog tools I had to create a new way to make sure the buyer of post analog art could become the owner of the digital file, and not only what is made from this file. This is what I call DigiSeed, and this information can be found here: http://digiseed.org
