Earth, Air, Fire, Water & most importantly Heart. Walking into the lightning cracks of an approaching storm, I perceived a bolt to ignite a heart and fell inward to its pulse. I saw the transition of elements and the movement of forces. The seas ebbed and the fires raged; fueled by a vortex of wind [...]

Odd Nerdrum
While visiting Norway, I stumbled across a book whose face captured me… The piece was “Limbo”, by Norwegian artist Odd Nerdrum… whose name is a little hard to forget, especially after seeing his work.
