In The Windowsill III Decorative Ceramic Vase by Lillian TørlenUnique Piece.Dimensions: D 10,5 x W 13 x H 22,5 cm. Materials: Ceramic. The exhibition Levels of Attachment and Belonging consists of a series of ceramic vases pressed, squeezed, and shaped by moldings, edges, corners, and furniture. They are defined by the architecture and interior of the gallery, and relate to their surroundings in different ways. Sometimes this is revealed through subtle traces, while others seem brutally forced into the various spaces of the gallery. Where some have retained their potential as a functional vase, others remain as useless, squashed objects where the characteristics of the vase have been almost erased.Lillian Tørlen is a visual artist living and working in Oslo, Norway.Making site-specific works, she is interested in how people experience their immediate surroundings. Through sculptures and installations in various materials she invites the viewer to re-evaluate spaces, to pause and consider a chain of events, or to simply contemplate the dialogue happening between the piece and the space.Sometimes the pieces are subtle, almost blending into the environment, and not necessarily discovered straight away. Other times they stand out as a contrast, and are impossible to miss.
