Eldbjørg Sved Skottvoll

(She/her)
Address: Startblokka, Østre Aker vei 90, 0596 Oslo
Floor: 2., bygg 6
The studio is open Saturday 26 April from 12-17

My working methods sometimes begin with the need to express my emotions on the canvas or paper
through my body and with the use of movement. The abstract expression can also appear out of the need to
solve a self-imposed compositional puzzle. I sometimes make collages to sketch a
composition, I begin with one or two lines before I twist, cut, and bend additional layers of paper that I
glue on top of the base layer. The latest theme I am exploring is imagining that I am entering a labyrint.
