Norwegian artist Per Kristian Nyg\u00e5rd<\/strong>\u00a0has attempted to\u00a0merge an organized\u00a0architectural environment with the organic nature of landscapes through his latest installation titled ‘Not Red But Green’.\u00a0<\/strong>The installation consisting of green swerving\u00a0mounds spread\u00a0throughout\u00a0the white-walled space of the Oslo’s\u00a0No<\/strong> Place<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0gallery.<\/p>\n

The installation not only explores the\u00a0relationship between architecture and nature, but also explores the limitations and possibilities of space.<\/p>\n

“The work is seemingly meaningless and confusing \u2013 as a contrast to the all-encompassing meaningful and personalized we surround ourselves with, for example the programmed urban environment, the functional objects and architecture” explains\u00a0Per Kristian Nyg\u00e5rd.<\/p>\n

The valleys and hills of the sculpture were created using wooden framework which was\u00a0covered with plastic sheets and a thin layer of soil impregnated with grass seed. Over the course of the exhibitions, the\u00a0seeds sprouted and the landscape was regularly watered. Patches of soil are visible in certain parts while most of it became covered with wispy blades of grass.<\/p>\n

The installation aims at “confronting the visitors with their own intuitive and physical response to the experience of entering a space where everything’s wrong but feels right”.<\/p>\n
