Syntax is the "physical" matter of representation of new imaginaries, and the mystery of the unknown, it's its unexpected potential while "writing images" with artificial intelligence prompts.

The beauty of Syntax

MENTAL FREEZE

In my work, I care about the narrative of an emotion or idea as opposed to portraying it in an illustrative sense, and I'm often trying to explore the duality of opposing ideas within this abstract landscape.
I do not have a sequential narrative in my paintings, because I do not believe expression within painting is just a tale to be told, I believe it is something more complex and yet harder to define. 
A theme that runs through this painting is finding duality between ecstasy and panic.

is about the beauty and strength of the human body. They are detailed shots of bodies that appear like a landscape due to their isolation. Concentrating on the individual parts of the body in this way has an alienating effect and there are also fewer judgments as to who these parts belong to. They are self-contained and stand for the separation of labeling and judgement. By depicting less 'perfect' body shapes, it is visualized that beauty does not have to be equated with perfection or identification.

This work was originally inspired by the collaboration between Gerhard Richter and composer Steve Reich's “Patterns”. In this particular work, the painter's image is continually deconstructed until it reaches a state of the sublime. In a similar manner after creating and translating a series of interviews into data fields, I set about to create a sequence of further deconstruction and spatial abstraction. By utilising a series of digital cameras in space and imbuing the environment with a sense of speed I arrived at this point. Data points accelerated moving in micro space expanded into vistas of colour volumes.

Liminal beings are those that cannot easily be placed into a single category of existence. Liminal beings are naturally ambiguous, challenging the cultural networks of social classification. The work evolution of data-based personas which been further abstracted into soft light colour fields. The movement and colour echoing what they once were, now dissolved into amorphous fields of colour and light.

In anthropology, liminality, meaning "a threshold" is the quality of ambiguity or disorientation that occurs in the middle stage of a rite of passage when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun the transition to the status they will hold when the rite is complete. During a rite's liminal stage, participants "stand at the threshold” between their previous way of structuring their identity, time, or community, and a new way, in which completing the rite establishes.

With the photography project "What nature knows", Rognli draws in references from his affiliation with Arctic Northern Norway, to light, darkness and the seasons. He transforms ordinary landscapes into an enigmatic place to be and takes us on a visual experience in the evening and the atmosphere of the night. In the project he immerses light installations in water, and creates harmony where there is conflict between the elements. He illuminates nature with LED-light and luminescent material.

Holes in my abyss

Pearl farming industry in Omura Bay, Nagasaki Prefecture. In order to stabilize its value and distribute as a uniform industrial product, pearls have been bleached, its sphere polished, and measured in size to determine its rank during the distribution process. However, a pearl is actually the opposite of being uniform; Each is a gift of life born from a mother shell, the Akoya shellfish. The beauty in its uniqueness is similar to that of individual people. It truly embodies the beauty of diversity and individuality. That is, if it derives from natural diversity, instead of industrial uniformity, when brought into society. Within a single atmosphere, this exhibition aims to create time that has not been used during this history.

Soft light falls in an atmosphere that is loosely separated from the outside world by organdy.
The atmosphere portrays a mother’s womb; In it dwells air, presence, sounds, and life, all holding its independent values.

The single thread that supports the weight of a pearl expresses the time axis of the life of each pearl. Each thread sways in the natural breeze of its atmosphere and interacts with each other’s lives, just like the life of us humans.

Nameless Portrait

The scrap metal collection depot hosted huge piles of mixed metal parts. On one side the twisted rebar lay in tangled balls playfully rolled up with the deft movements of a huge claw controlled by our friend sitting in the crane cabin. Upon an unsorted nest of scrap was an old exhaust pipe looking out of place. The millions of cars which clog the roads in this vast city of 20 million eventually find their way to places like this awaiting reincarnation.
