Arjuna Geir Aasehaug

Born 1967 in Bergen, Norway. He has lived in Sweden since 2003 and today he lives and works in Partille outside Gothenburg.

“ I prefer working with acrylic on canvas. My paintings often have a dreamy and enigmatic expression. I am interested in contrasts in both the technical and the thematic, and I am happy to explore the contradictions and different characteristics that live side by side in the world. I seek in a poetic way to say something about loneliness, isolation and perishability in human existence. I also explore the meeting between our inner world and the outer; room and movement in the room. People or animals are often found wandering inland in an undefined landscape; People often just like a shadow or a silhouette. Time and work process are also important key words: I want there to be traces of time and work process in my paintings. Often several layers of different worlds on top of each other. “
