Vibeke Tandberg's Minimalist Sculptures and Cloud Photographs at OSL contemporary
At OSL contemporary in Oslo, Vibeke Tandberg showcases her latest exhibition, featuring eight life-sized plaster sculptures molded from her torso and six cloud photographs produced with a fog machine. This exhibition is noted for its striking simplicity and minimalism, contrasting sharply with her previous intricate works. Tandberg's artistic journey commenced with 'Brud' (1993), a pivotal series of wedding announcements and photographs. Over the last thirty-three years, her work has developed through a gradual accumulation of images, ideas, props, and experiences that emerge, fade, merge, and reappear. Her creative process mirrors cloud formation, where vapor transforms and reshapes. This exhibition is part of an ongoing survey, and her upcoming 2024 novel, 'Hestedagboken' (The Horse Diary), sheds light on her new works.
