Description
This artwork is an avant-garde sculpture of a horse, characterized by its geometric and minimalist design. The piece is crafted from a metallic material, giving it a sleek and modern aesthetic while emphasizing its contemporary roots. The sculpture's surface is intricately etched with a network of fine lines, delivering a textured and dynamic visual experience. These markings introduce a sense of movement and life to the otherwise static form. Standing firm on all four legs, the horse's stance is both sturdy and commanding, capturing the essence of strength and stability. The artist has eschewed realistic detailing in favor of abstract simplicity, distilling the animal's form into essential shapes. The head is blocky with a prominent rectangular forehead, while the body is a solid, unembellished mass, highlighting the artist's dedication to geometric abstraction. This piece is not merely a representation of a horse but an exploration of form, space, and texture. Its rough surface contrasts effectively with its smooth, metallic sheen, creating a piece that is both visually and texturally engaging. The interplay between the simplicity of the figure and the complexity of the etchings invites the viewer to engage with the sculpture on multiple levels, making it a poignant addition to any modern art collection.
Bohême – Wooden horse with Silver leaf – 42cm – 2018 Graffiti
Presentation
K. Oldal has studied Design history and particularly Scandinavian Design at the university during five years.
For the last couple of years, she proposes a very original reinterpretation of a famous Swedish symbol: the Dalecarlian horse or Dalahorse (Dalahäst). This national symbol links to Viking mythology and the ancient Gods Freyr and Odin. She has named this original creation 'Oldalahäst' after her maternal grandparents and very especially in tribute to her grandfather who to seduce his dearest (very keen on originality) invented his own surname (Oldal) and gave it to her as a wedding gift.
Each horse is a unique handmade piece of wood (Swedish pine from Nusnäs), with a modern and pure shape, it has the signature of the artist. Some of them are covered in gold, copper and silverleaves and are tagged with graffitis, other with handpicked flowers that she presses and dries in a traditional way, between pages of old books. The drying time is between one to three months. The flowers come from different places that she loves, like the archipelago of Stockholm, the mountains of Provence, the riviera of Liguria and Tuscany.
All the pieces are covered by several coats of UV-protection and varnish to finish the process and make them resistant. The Oldalahäst is a product filled with wholehearted passion combining both tradition and modernity with handicraft and design and a great sensibility for colors.
