In my work down and up the focus is on the process. I came to Norway without an idea, without a specific vision. I let myself be carried by the country and its culture, absorbing everything around me and the stone. I wanted to follow its character and trace its existing lines, to open it up for viewers, to turn its inside out.
The hard physical work I performed on it – the violent cutting with the angle grinder, the monotonous blows with hammer and chisel, the fine smoothing structures – all this remains visible in the stone. I developed a shape that speaks of the physicality of the process, the vulnerability of a material, the vulnerability of a relationship, about working together, working against each other, about being together.
