The Street

I attempted to depict the quiet of winter landscapes in the paintings, using last years heavy snowing as inspiration. In the silent and empty, snow-covered country human figures appear, too, but remain unidentified. Who are they? Where do they come from? What for? Where do they go? It is for the fantasy of the viewer to find the answers. My purpose with this is to create a special atmosphere: an imagery, dreamlike world is brought to life in the pictures, a world into which one can easily project past, present, and future.
In my coming works I wish to continue contemplating the relationships between figure and space, further elaborating the ways in which man and his surroundings, nature and man-made environments are related (e.g The Street).
