Material Movements

Ditte Ejlerskov’s sublime “Dream Gradients” provide room for reflection and contemplation in a chaotic world. She navigates both art and the digital world with a fascination for the essence of color and light. Ejerskov’s series of large hand-painted color gradients go beyond their visual beauty; her exploration of color as a therapeutic medium establishes a profound connection between art and the natural world, where color has the power to affect our state of mind.

Ali Gallefoss’ sculptures explore the interaction between artistic influences, coincidences and intuitive changes. Each of Gallefoss’ artworks has its own narrative, influenced by the conditions underlying the creative action in the studio. In response to man’s excessive need to shape and control the environment, Gallefoss produces unpolished objects, where man-made ‘flaws’ help to add value to the final result.

Irene Nordli’s porcelain sculptures exist somewhere between abstraction and figuration. Her works are composed of fragments that represent traces, remains and memories. The man-made and the artist’s influence is evident in her works, and you can trace her movement and power in the clay and glaze even after the works are out of the kiln. Her sculptures are at once beautiful and grotesque, evoking feelings of both weathering and growth.
