Threshold IV — The Body as Scar (Norway, 2017–2025)

 

Here, not only do visual works emerge — a living archive unfolds.

The artist’s body becomes a ritual instrument — sweat, trance, chant, cry, dance — and the artwork turns into a tactile mirror of that rupture.

 

Pigment, plaster, and wood are no longer neutral materials: they are witnesses, scars that pulse.

 

In parallel, daily introspection — Vipassana meditation, writing, therapy — wove a healing process that is not concealed but engraved in relief.

 

Each work is a bodily record of transformed pain, an atlas of scars that do not seek to close, but to offer a territory of recognition and renewal.

 

The Body-Scar thus rises as an architecture of the wound: an expanded language between art, science, and memory,

where matter becomes skin and pain transforms into a habitable space.
