Now: Mine Klesmerker/Stryke-på-merker Badges for sale at Kunstlounge Nitja 


A Print for You

startet med dette: et kurs i tekstiltrykk og tegning på tekstil ved KHIO, da jeg gikk der. Jeg fikk lyst til å lage klesmerker og tegnet slike merker som jeg tenkte kunne passe mennesker jeg kjente. Det var humor og varme i merkene, som var FOR å være jentete, guttete, venninnete, rosa, menstruerende, feministisk, furten, sinna, forelsket, og helt for kvinner i ditt liv, og glad i steder, dyr og litteratur. Selve tittelen på klesmerke-prosjektet spiller på slogans og merkvevarer slik de forsøkte selge produkter det første tiåret av 2000. Motivene hentet jeg fra fantasi, det jeg observerte, og fra apropriasjon fra illustrasjoner, tegneserier og faktabøker og reklame. Fortsatt lager jeg klesmerker som er FOR å være noe man liker å gjøre, eller er.


Happy that this work "Chasing Reality Lately/Girl Walking" now is in Oslo kommunes kunstsamling.--------------------------------------->>>

3. Nupereller_Roses/Poses, on roles, to care for, and to posture yourself. This project is done with a regard to the norwegian poet Inger Hagerups beautiful poem Nyperosa. I started my work on this project in 2018. The roses are appropriated from Den Norske Flora(1974/85 utgaven). And future tapestries are for now my project on men and their words in literature on men and their friendship with women, in You Never Laugh Laughter (q.D.H.Lawrence).

Brittle, Little & The Brutal Truth

Warp in Web/ Free Me: 

 

A few years ago I made a row of tapestries, with a reference to a booklet tematizing women, self-help literature and  loveaddictons. These tapestries were shown to point to how victims after been offended, violated or/and publicly shamed show little but fright of being in relationships, and that they find it hard to get and receive love. The tapestries have titles inspired by webhoroscopes and shown as a whole, the title was: You Might As Well Face It: You`re Addicted to Love. In my sketches, the tapetries had undertitles as: Blush! / Stay!/ Kneel! / Dream!


Addictions is not what I write about in my lyrics, but the afterglows of living, in several ways. And I try to add a little humour, or distance, so we, you, dont have to be blue:

Apply Your Energy in the Spirit of Love! In the background: She is Lost in Thought. And Burbling Enthusiasm.
Try to Relax! Exhibited at Hå Gamle Prestegard.
They Say in Life We Make Our Own Luck!
Explode in a Flirtateous Mood!

The project When Grief Comes was shown at LANDART 2015 in Ask. In this project I  focused on the healing aspects nature, music and birds can have for those that are in need of healing and of seeing an end to misery. The Bluebird is an old symbol of hope and new beginnings. When Grief Comes also has its own playlist on some platforms: Birds and Trees, Playlist Landart 2015. Enjoy!The shelter is made by Kjetil Sivertsen and Odd J. Martinsen.
