PLACES OF WORSHIP
PLACES OF WORSHIP
In his album PLACES OF WORSHIP, Arve Henriksen creates a sense of awe, humility and wonder when he conjures bleak beguiling landscapes with sparse, elegant, haiku-like precision, invoking intimate reverie and melancholia.
Video art creates a nostalgic state between reality, memory and dreaming, contemplating life and death: loss, longing, light and hope.
Short film LAMENT is dedicated to the memory of my father: Vlad Stanishevsky
