About this artwork
"In medias res" is a Latin phrase that translates to "in the midst of things" or "into the middle of things" in English. It is a literary term that refers to a narrative technique where a story begins in the middle of the action, rather than at the beginning. This approach is often used to grab the audience's attention and immerse them directly into the story's central events or conflicts.
Using "In medias res" as the title of a painting suggests… that the artwork also employs this narrative technique in a visual context. It implies that the painting captures a moment of intense activity, emotion, or drama, much like the opening scene of a story that begins "in the midst of things." The viewer is invited to engage with the artwork and interpret the story or emotions behind it by starting from the middle, rather than having a clear beginning or end.
« I like to say that my paintings are memories of non-existent landscapes. »
Bjørnar Aaslund likens the process of beginning a painting to stepping into the white surface of untouched snow. The Norwegian artist's encounters with landscape and nature influence his art, which is processed and transformed, then reproduced as abstract forms of reality. Aaslund's compositions are emotional spaces built by layers of color – some transparent, others opaque – all forming the substance of the piece.
