Jeg vil male mennesker som sover
stryke de på kinnet
pakke de inn i draperi
farger av hvitt
mykhet
lukke øynene

la dem drømme



Quiero pintar las personas que duermen
acariciar sus mejillas
envolverlos con ropajes
con colores de blanco
suavemente
cerrando sus ojos

déjalos soñar


(versión traducida)

 Marius 

I have moved to a different country for the first time in my life.
And what have I discovered? Oh my God, I am Norwegian!

Diversity is a valuable thing. It makes the people, the moments and the memories.

I present and share series of Norwegian and Spanish portraits. The heroes. Or the non-heroes. All mixed up and wrapped in the knitted Marius sweater. Like it’s any day in Norway.

The pattern was designed by Marius Eriksen in 1953, and have ever since been a part of the representation of Norway. A little detail of Norway I want to share with you.


Media: Phototransfer, pen, pencil, charcoal and watercolor on paper.
Format: 29,7 x 42 cm.

Work for sale.



       Marius

Me he mudado a otro país por primera vez en mi vida.
¿Y qué he descubierto? ¡Oh Dios mío, soy noruega!

La diversidad es una cosa valiosa, hace a la gente, los momentos y los recuerdos.

Yo presento y comparto una serie de retratos noruegos y españoles. Los héroes. O los no héroes. Todo mezclado y envuelto en el Suéter Marius de punto. Como si fuera cualquier día en Noruega.

El modelo fue diseñado por Marius Eriksen en 1953, y desde entonces ha sido parte de la representación de Noruega. Un pequeño detalle de Noruega que quiero compartir contigo.


Medios: Foto de la transferencia, pluma, lápiz, carbón y acuarela sobre papel.
Formato: 29,7 x 42 cm

Para la venta.

Upcoming group exhibition:



I am lucky to be a part of a group exhibition that will be my first one in Barcelona. I will be showing portrait series of people in Norways knitted Marius sweater.  I am really excited and welcome to you all!

INSPIRATION

















"My kids are starting to notice I'm a little different from the other dads. "Why don't you have a straight job like everyone else?" they asked me the other day. I told them this story: In the forest, there was a crooked tree and a straight tree. Every day, the straight tree would say to the crooked tree, "Look at me...I'm tall, and I'm straight, and I'm handsome. Look at you...you're all crooked and bent over. No one wants to look at you." And they grew up in that forest together. And then one day the loggers came, and they saw the crooked tree and the straight tree, and they said, "Just cut the straight trees and leave the rest." So the loggers turned all the straight trees into lumber and toothpicks and paper. And the crooked tree is still there, growing stronger and stranger every day."
-Tom Waits
