About my artwork
I work with both Visual Art and and Sound.
The category's displayed here on artreview is too limited but I've chosen Digital, Drawing and Photography at the moment.

Originally I was a painter [from the Art Academy in CPH] Today it's Photo/Drawing/Digital Hybrids as well as 'clean' Photographic work I'm doing. Clean in the sense that they're what the camera 'took' without the extra manipulation or editing that I otherwise adore using [in my hybrids].

The Refrain series [work in progress] is an example of this 'clean' body of work. It's a jump into the emotions related to the past, the lived and lost parts of our lives - scenes from the memory bank, if you will.

I have another project with visual work at the moment, titled: The Decorated Children. I recently had an exhibit of the first set from this series, but more is underway.
This is a Photo/Drawing Hybrid visual story-telling. Preview - look below

My Dream Team series is yet another work that will be exposed here on my profile page soon..!

I'm part of the Exiting: Exquisite Corpse Video Project, I believe it's the most active online group here on artreview, in the firm hands of Kika. This will be my first step into actually combining the visual work and soundwork I have done separately for so many years. A new adventure...



A few words about my Soundwork:

Sound design and compositions for Theater [and movie's]
Record engineering and production of albums [CD+LP]
Series of 'Unpublished Compositions' [ElectroAcoustic]
Drummer in the secret 'Saknussem Orchestra'

***
Interests
Music!!!
A lot of genres - from renaissance, over romantic, via avantgarde and experimental to pop/rock through so called world music - and back again.
There's a huge output of classic gems [in all genres] put out on albums, and it's so sad to see the world is going *.mp3 and accepting the loudness war.

Har været så heldig at udstille der 3 gange inden for de senere år og har derfor været "tvunget" til at drage derover, 5 gange i alt indtil videre :-)
Man blir dejligt fyldt op med fantastisk kunst, og BY en masse.
Du må endelig sige til, når du udstiller, så kan det være, at jeg kan kigge forbi, hvis det er i københavnsområdet...? De bedste J

Hvor pudsigt! Og hvor pudsigt at det er et foto fra NYC - min yndlingsby. Det talte i den grad til mig!!
Næe...bor i Rødovre, arbejder på at komme til at arbejde i NYC i et par måneder næste år. Det ville være skønt...Så du har altså også haft din gang overthere? Bedste hilsner Jonna

Very nice series in grey, Mads; I especially the windshield textures. Captures the fresh bleakness of the plain states.
