Erljng Viktor

Erling Viktor was Born in Denmark 1968. He was educated at the art school in Holbaek and at the school of Danish Design Copenhagen, Denmark. He had self studies in Amsterdam and Cairo. Erling lives and works in Berlin.

The central themes in Viktor’s artwork cover unrest, movement and change. In paintings and drawings, collage and text, He reflects on life and then seize impulses from a general perspective, which can be drawn from long-term, personal experiences:

In his work, he is always searching for individual truth-sure - whether within, or in those around him. Naked and on this search, he uses art to dive into what is behind the clichés, the charming facades and self-promotion.

The goal of Viktor’s work is to authentically and honestly demonstrate deep and complicated feelings, which due to its directness would like to come into contact with the observer - Also because it poses abstract and playful questions. His art is about the real exchange between people and about the reality of contact- This gives rise to humor, as much as to certain provocation, through which an internal excitement is brought into being and leads to a confrontation with art and honest reactions to life.
