Utstillingen vises hos Galleri Riis frem til og med 14. oktoberFields of Folded Time is on view through Saturday, October 14.Through several exhibitions over the last decade, Marie Buskov (b. 1980 in Rosenholm, Denmark) has become well known on the Norwegian art scene for her vital abstract works on paper, wallpaintings and sculptures constructed from steel or cast in bronze and aluminum. In her exhibitions, the various media interact in elegant and complex installations.
She has executed several public commissions comprising stained glass, wallpainting, sculpture and liturgical furniture, of which the most comprehensive to date is her work for the new Sola Church, Norway, in 2020. Major works can be found in the collections of The National Museum in Oslo, Lillehammer Art Museum, and the City of Oslo Art Collection.
Marie Buskov studied at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen (2001-05) and holds a MFA from Oslo National Academy of the Arts (2005-09). She lives and works in Oslo.
Buskov has always been interested in architecture and its surroundings, and lately she has investigated this further, with a focus on structures and rhythms, both visible and hidden:
“You could say that I am drawing up new spaces based on these structures. I look for gaps which I either try to charge or leave as they are. It can be an idea of space that occurs in between something, as in the meeting of two surfaces, or in the refraction between something known and something imaginary.
I am curious about the connection between different positions, such as the random and the planned, the legible and the abstract, and a dialogue between the digital and the tangible. For me, the most interesting areas are those that cannot be clearly measured, described or explained.
The ambiguity in spaces and demarcations is what I try to give visible form. These works are the result of my recordings and examinations, and I aspire to see them in the world.”
