What is hiding behind the curtain

WhatishidingbehindthecurtainStudio-Exhibition of Karina Mosegard
March-April 2013
Drawings and writing on cotton and transparent silk 600 X 280 X 150 cm

In her work Karina Mosegard is connecting two levels of the perception of life. The underlaying, opaque level shows us a child women, who is embedded in the mysteries of sexuality and the various forms of furtility, who knows about the interweavment of all things and beings, the moleculuar and interstellar relations. This level is self-evident and intuitive.

On a second, transparent and almost ephemeral level, she presents a text by James Joyce about the „ineluctutable modality of the visible“. Limits of perception and the body occur – the relation of what we see and who we are. The intellectual and reflective level.

The text is ending with the advice: „shut your eyes and see.“, and so leads us back to level one.
Moving in front or inside the installation gives you a strong impression of the beauty of the various possibilities to experience life, the complex joy to immerse in its endless and shining presence.
