Kunstnerforbundet in Oslo presents a solo show of all new works by Mattias Härenstam. The show opens on 12th April at 18:00 and is titled "Jeg vet at du er der" (I know you are there). More images of the exhibition here.
It features a series of five large-scale wood sculptures. Carved out of entire tree trunks, the sculptures have an overwhelming mass. But at the same time they invite to a rather intimate interaction with the onlooker with their finely chiseled details, some of them grotesque, others more surreal or even lyrical.
The show will be up until May 6th. Opening hours Tue - Wed and Fri 11 - 17, Thu 11 - 18, Sat 11 - 16, Sun 12 - 16, Mon closed. Kunstnerforbundet, Kjeld Stubs gate 3, 0160 Oslo.
