The Golden Section, 90 x 90cm, mixed media, 2005
Artist statement:
Lene Bladbjerg’s work is mainly abstract acrylic paintings on canvas in large scale. Her work is influenced by her background as a graphic designer. Grids and typography is used throughout much of her work. She is very observant and pays great attention to the smaller scale details of everyday life and will often see the beauty in even the most ordinary of events and objects. Often a single colour in her surrounding will provoke the creation of an artwork. The final piece will be strongly influenced by her state of mind at the time of creation, images will vary from light and calm colours to dark and deeper nuances.
Genre:
2D: painting
