About this artwork
84x64 cm | Filler, oak frame, cigar case
The object on the top of the panel is a cigar case containing an actual cigar, or what is left of it. It was given to me by my brother many years ago as a Christmas gift. For this work, I used it to make a drawing in the wet filler.
Every artwork has a history, and the artist biography is part of it. Context is always invisible, but at the same time crucial for our understanding of the world. What we know,… changes what we see. Language is always at work in perception. But there is always something unknown in every image. A secret ingredient that ensures a minimum distance between signifier and signified, between map and terrain. Privacy contains the same logic. Without a minimum distance between the inner self and the public persona, the subject would collapse. The strange thing though, is that no matter how much we expose ourselves, there is always something left hidden. Not the least to ourselves.

« 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.
