Daily Deviation, 2008-09-14
merry-go-round by *ingvildnilsen. Such a gorgeous, surrealistic take on something we all have memories of- merry-go-rounds. Twisting, the concept into something strange and fascinatingly beautiful. (Suggested by `synconi and Featured by $chix0r)

The concept and execution are simply brilliant. Each glance shows me some new facet of the image i missed previously and it reminds me of the twists and turns of a carousel. Beautifully done

Rattlesnake Ruby lives in a tree, not in my garden I'm feeling
Free.
Rattlesnake Ruby let the children play, they dancing around her
Every day.
She don't have to show herself to them..............

:blackrose:
=LRushton It is almost always a fruitless quest, to see what lies beyond the veil and into the mind and heart of another artist: It is a hidden world, to which they are both master and slave; to their desires, hopes, fears, and dreams.

Ones that are only restrained by frail fibres of brush, or the cold caress of the painter’s knife. But in Ingvild’s case, such restraint is not present, barrier to expression is only cumbrous flesh, for she paints without the mere tools upon which so many rely.

So, with merit in style raised and ignorance of intent acknowledged, what more can I say, than point to the world I see, bound within to eternal flux of canvas. And, to me it seems to be a work of symbols and stories.

Within it I see many things, though all seem to rest in a conflict. On one side there are the enlarged breasts, projected womb and stark separation of loin and leg. All of which draw out a profound sense of raw sexuality and eroticism for me, though one that is conflicted.

The face is unclear and recessed and with it the uncertainties reign. It draws out images of the Seán-na-Gig, Maya and countless other visions of the sacred feminine. Of woman being the goddess that she is: whether the culmination of creation in dust twice-refined or the one who nourishes all creation, in near eastern and other traditions.

But then, is the face obscured from pain? From the sheer projection of sexuality but at the loss of the fragility of self? A mere object of idolatry and not the idol that she should be? The conflict remains. And in Ingvild’s work, the paradox is reinforced to my eyes.

A true master, beyond doubt!

[Sorry for the delay sweetie. Take care of yourself!]

INGVILD NILSENS Kunstkritikk:

Johan Daniel Galtung karaktiserer henne slik:

"Et naturtalent av de store og en utrolig formidler av den fysiske og usynlige verden.
Hun skaper stemninger vi andre opplever i drømme"


Siden 1996 har hun vært elev og fått evaluert sine arbeider hos maler og billedhugger
Tore Bjørn Skjølsvik som omtaler Ingvild Nilsens arbeider slik:

"Ingvild Nilsen er ikke naturalist i den forstand at hun maler mennesker som
strikker og syr. Hun maler følelser som hun konkret ikke kan svare for, men som
blir tydligere senere. Bildene vil jeg kalle Figurativt surrealistiske, figurgrupper som
komponeres i forhold til hverandre mot lyset. Når Ingvild er fri og slipper det underbevisste
frem litt frekt og direkte, lykkes hun best."
