Themes
The artist has had several theme-exhibitions; Peer Gynt and Ibsen’s Women in the Ibsen Year 2006 (Paris and Oslo), Apocalypse with the subtheme the nature bleeds, which is his warning about the climatic changes (Bogense, Denmark, Oslo, London, New York and Bangalore, India).
In addition, he often uses the Madonna-figure who is “the Mother of all women”. It is thewomen’s particular spiritual creatures which often preoccupies the artist. In many of his works, these are often his reflections and thoughts.
Another theme is man’s yarning in time and space. One can often see in his works persons regarding the horizon (symbolized by strong and vibrant lights) with their shadows in projection.
