About
Shaped by the wild and pure landscapes of Sweden’s archipelagos and educated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich under the guidance of Florian Pumhösl, Oskar Rahe’s practice is rooted in a dynamic process of curiosity and intuitive engagement.
Each work emerges from a process that is as much about discovery as it is about creation. Rather than imposing predetermined outcomes, everything begins with an impulse; capturing what is of interest at present. The cleavages of wooden pieces are carefully executed, but can never be fully controlled. The process itself becomes a dialogue between intention and coincidence and the sculpture captures this a specific moment in endless time. This moment is settled between order and chaos, between stability and fragility searching for balance.
