About this artwork
Filler, oak frames
The Fifty-Fifty series simply consists of works where half the surface is grey and half white. This is achieved by dividing a wooden board of the same size as the work in half. One part is used to create a template for the composition. The board can be further divided. As long as all pieces are used, a 50% distribution of the surface between white and grey is guaranteed.
For the first batch in the series, I cut the board in half… horizontally and then, for every new work in the batch, I continued to cut every piece in half using only straight lines.

« I am interested in process-based painting, and the profound solitude of the human mind. While exploring one, I sometimes try to formulate something about the other, and how it affects our relationship with the outside world. »
Johan Söderström is a nationally-distinguished Norwegian painter. His works consist of layers of filler where various fields are laid beside each other, like pieces in a puzzle, and he uses his unique technique to emphasize cracks, textures and other aspects the material's own history. He primarily explores the theme of human alienation, and aims to ensure that his aesthetic can be perceived in ways simple enough to diminish the distance between viewer and work.
