Over 20 years, Henrik has managed to maintain his artistic integrity and messages, while at the same time showing a unique ability to constantly test new boundaries, forms of expression, techniques and materials - always with nature as return & inspiration.
At this exhibition, he has chosen to show "clay objects" inspired by:
Kintsugi
To see the beauty in the imperfect…..
Kintsugi is a metaphor for life and a philosophy of life that reminds us that what goes "in pieces" for us can be put together again. That we can come out stronger and more beautiful on the other side after we are cracked under pressure. Or as the Persian poet Rumi put it:
The wound is where the light enters you.
Kintsugi tells us that it doesn't all have to be perfect. That we don't have to be smooth and wrinkle-free, but that we are most beautiful when we show our scars and demonstrate that we are whole people.
We embrace them, they help shape us, make us wiser, older, receptive & make us more beautiful.
