Olav Herman-Hansen: Inside Out
Where Time Stands Still
- thoughts continue, or magical realism and dream visions
In a time when the flow of images rolls endlessly past us, Olav Herman Hansen invites us into something entirely different: a slow, quiet world where each motif carries traces of a memory, a dream or a moment that refuses to let go.
Many of his works come from childhood memories—like a blurred film he keeps trying to develop. Memories seen through the filter of time: unclear, moving, and carrying both closeness and distance. Dream visions and fragments flow into one another: a sinking boat, a time that has passed, and a time that takes over—just as imperceptibly as the light that shifts in a room.The stream of time runs through his motifs.
