Here, here is a series of sculptures based on photography of found objects that Kvie has collected, documenting markings in urban spaces. Wiry metal rods extending from a block of concrete or marble as if they have been dug up from the streets. Those sorts of man-made objects that are not made to draw attention, but rather implies that they are temporary solutions to problems or a need. When translating the original elements to other materials by sculpting and casting, Kvie creates sculptural works that carry witnesses to a different origin. Kvie lifts the original object away from its temporary function into another temporality and visibility.
Time is fundamental to consider with Kvie’s sculptures; how the choice of materials and the specific way Kvie treats them affects the way we perceive his sculptural work. With our limited experience of time, Kvie is interested in the concept of time, in both geological and cosmic sense. What is often too vast to experience as a human, we are given a chance to encounter or glimpse in Kvie's work as time in various forms is embedded in his sculptures.
