IDA THORHAUGE: BETWEEN ETERNITY AND TIME

Negotiations between strength and fragility are consistent in Thorhauge’s works, a subtle dualism and a love of the equivocal unify in an expression that is as whole as it is underacted and challenging. The paintings look like considerate uncoverings of essential clashes, which are explorative rather conflict-ridden: encounters between life and death, something light and something dark, the beautiful and the ugly, love and loneliness, the masculine and the feminine, naivety and complexity.
