Everyone is sad besides me is an abstract painting, in a modern tradition. It portrays the strange feeling of being happy when people around you are sad or miserable, inside you have a lot of life and energy which you would like to unfold. Still you have to take care of the sad ones and help them as best as you can. The painting is made in black, grey, pink, shades of blue, red and lilac. I have covered the mdf-board with linen, leaving a highly textured surface of linen patterns and also threads. The dark areas bring forward the light in the shapes and the surroundings, creating the intense variations. The format is approximate. There are a few millimeters difference on height and width. I can make a back frame for it, so that it can be hung onto the wall as it is. However, the painting would probably display very nicely with a silver frame. The painting can be displayed in several ways. For more perspective one the different possibilities, you can visit my website, Siri Skogstad Berntsen Artis Blog at blogger.com

In a multidimensional world, art brings visibility to different viewpoints. As an artist with a minority background, I will present artistic expressions from the viewpoint of the Kveni people in the north of Norway. The Kvens as a people belongs to the cap of north, the kvens was originally situated in the north of Finland and Sweden, in Tornedalen and Bottenviken, and goes far back in our history, Many kvens lived in the north of Norway, and became a minority, with a different language and culture. The Kveni people experienced Norwegianizing in modern time, suppression from the government. Very few were to inherit their culture in modern time because of the suppression. I will try to understand what it means for a human being to loose identity and culture this way. I will also try to understand more deeply the historical roots of the Kveni people, like my grandmother, the last person in my line, to speak the Kveni language. Thematically, works are found within a conceptual tradition, or as representations of the stories of the Kveni people and their historical landscapes. This page will change as I start to bring forward new works, in line with the artistic statement.
