About me

The name "Mørk" means dark in Norwegian, and although I depict dark moods and undertones in my art and music, I always attempt to give a glimmer of hope and light at the same time. Encompassing a holistic approach to life.

On one hand I am inspired by that which connects us as humans, regardless of culture. And on the other hand I'm inspired by my Norwegian heritage; green forests, rusty leaves, gray mountains, black sky, white winters, fresh light and clean air.

Nordic Glass 2000

Nordic exhibition

"Nordic Glass 2000 - Glass without Boundaries" was a large exhibition and book featuring glass artists from 6 different countries. Randi Gaustad from the Kunstindustrimuseet was the Norwegian curator.

I was chosen as one of the glass artists representing Norway. Glacier Arms was part of the art performance exhibition "Låst i Vann" which I am explaining below.

Glacier Arms were large glass castings I made with a team at Hadeland Glassverk and weighed 40 kg each.

Locked in Water 2000

Glass and music

After studying art and glass in France, I went back to my home country, Norway, and made an art performance with glass art and music.

The overall theme was water, and each glass art installation was symbolizing the different forms of water; ice, waterfall, boiling water, glacier, water puddles, stalactites etc.

It was performed by a choir of 16 women with me as a solo singer.

I designed 11 glass art installations and wrote music together with Paolo Vinaccia, Audun Erlien
