ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Ulrik Christian Ahlefeldt-Laurvig At the beginning of 2018, I started painting – first very experimental, trying out different shapes, materials, colors, and light. Now I’ve found a more robust and intense creative process, better than anything I have tried before. I hope people see this in my work, knowing I might shift tempo again someday ? Three fast ones: 1) What do you want with your art? I aim for a life of colors and light. Weird angles, passion, energy, and love – lots of luv! That I try to bring into my art. I wish people wake up and fall in love repeatedly in the art piece they may have bought. And that exact feeling spreads to the rest of their life, surroundings etc… 2) What is the greatest thing in your process of creating? When I experiment and suddenly see the colors and shapes fit together. And I know what the final result should be. 3) What is the biggest achievement so far in your life? When I melted my future wife’s heart – with my red pants and colorful soul. She’s very business-like, but I activated the creativity and kids-spirit in her.

Ulrik Christian Ahlefeldt-Laurvig's playful work combines color with humor while he pushes your boundaries, visual eye, and memory. Ulrik constantly improves his techniques by using oil, acrylic, or old-school print on different media such as canvas, paper, or mixed. It ensures he not only creates compositions expressing his vivid creativity but also tests viewers' perceptions. Feelings drive Ulrik in his work - people's energy, bodies, cultures, colors, the opposite attract, topics of interest, and especially if he can challenge how we all perceive or remember things or people. Ulrik's work has been featured and sold in numerous exhibitions in Denmark and at Virtual Artist metaverse from London. In 2022, he is expanding his territory to International markets like Barcelona and Dallas. With a background as Art Director, he has a sharp eye for details, trends, and media. Combined with his creativity and personal drive underlines, Ulrik is not a traditional artist painting on canvas or other media, but you will experience a world of playful pieces. Ulrik says, "I come from a strict upbringing consisting of private school, Emma Gad etiquettes, and enlistment at the Royal Life Guards due to our family tradition (King Frederik 3. founded the regiment in 1658, with the first chief of the command being Frederik Ahlefeldt)... So when I reached my mid-20s, I ran in the opposite direction of the life I knew with a very red mohawk. For more than 20 years, I have navigated in a creative world of advertising, design, film, and content creation – known for my twisted, colorful mindset. Some think I'm too much. Others like my work. Regardless - I love to challenge the boundaries and norms."   He continues, "I started with oil on canvas, which my mom works with as an artist too. The 'heaviness' and deeper dimensions of the materials led me to my darker and earlier pieces. I then started to experiment with acrylic and other media, moving into vivid colors and increasing adding humor and twisted statements. I prefer to work with this light and playful creation, but I still love using the oil occasionally." "In 2021, I started with old-school prints with lengthy processing. It is currently my preferred work as I use my skills from graphical design to print and a world of colors. Furthermore, I receive many orders and wishes on formats and motives, where I can freely play with their memory and preferences on print.
