Through a diverse ardsdc pracdce consisdng of drawings, watercolors and sculptural objects Inoue work with a visual poetry in which each work is the subject of a contempladve work, dedicated to various thought experiments and a meditadve absorpdon in the material.Ogen inspired by poedc literature Inoue seems to raise various holisdc and existendal quesdons that are ogen expressed as nightmarish or adventurous frames of mind that relate to the darker sides of life.The second ardst represented by SOD is Rasmus Rosengaard. The focal point of his ardsdc pracdce is the monochrome work, its materiality and its contempladve opportunides.Rosengaard will present some large scale drawings, where he in graphite alone tests the limits and possibilides of the frey monochrome, which involves a special focus on the processing of sensidve and ambient elements of the picture plane. The drawings are done on paper or canvas with graohite dust, which undergoes a long-­winded process in which the graphite is smoothed on the surface with a cloth to create and explore a spadal depth or evocadve elements.Presse mappe I Seite 88
