It illustrates the human fascination with outer space and our urge and need to visualize the immeasurable and eternal space.
The visual and sculptural motifs in the works by Jone Kvie often reflect phenomena and forms in nature; for many years Kvie was concentrated around the natural events such as stalactite caves, man’s distance to the moon, drifting ice blocks, whirlpools, mountain landscapes and meteors. As you experience the sculptures by Kvie, the more specific references extend and lead quickly outward to abstract notions, and thus become a transformation of the reference as well as of the form.
Jone Kvie is an artist from Norway living in Naples and Berlin. In 2019, Stavanger Art Museum staged his hitherto largest solo show, Here, here, where Kvie’s recent works were shown in relation to earlier works from the beginning of 2000. He is represented in private and public collections in Scandinavia and internationally, among others American University Museum (Washington DC), ARoS Aarhus Art Museum (Aarhus), Arts Council Norway, KODE Art Museums (Bergen), Gothenburg Museum of Art, the Public Art Agency Sweden, Stavanger Art Museum, Malmö Art Museum and the National Museum of Contemporary Art (Oslo).
