Thor Lindeneg

Visual Artist

Artist Statement – Thor Lindeneg

Thor Lindeneg’s works are easily recognizable for their motif circles, where especially the Egg, the Bird, the Water Drop, the Ladder, Nature, the Violin and the Picture are told and interpreted.- He is an artist who sees the absurd in everyday life, and the everyday in the absurd, said Ole Lindboe about him.

Thor Lindeneg is also easily recognizable for his stringent, blue-green color choice, which is resonantly clean together with the eggshells, an ancient symbol of life, beginnings and fragility.There is perhaps a sense of melancholy in this. The birthday boy likes to include a dash of humor in the motif and not least in the subtle titles, such as the image Offspring of the Chair connected to the Stool, and Silence of the wonderfully muted Violin. And he shows satirical sharpness in the motif Match, where we find the match and the elephant together on the parched ground.

The motifs are staged with layers of space and depth perspective, evoking elements such as The Faucet or The Cloth in a three-dimensional effect that reaches out to the viewer
