Samme som recto 1923 - 1927

This sketch by Edvard Weie is just lines on paper, simple as that. It shows artmaking as a process, like thinking out loud with a pencil. The texture of the paper, the way the pencil drags across it - you can almost feel it. It's so immediate, so raw. Look at those scribbled lines, the way they build up to suggest form, but never quite resolve into anything concrete. Is it a landscape? A figure? It's like Weie is inviting us into his thought process, letting us see the world through his eyes, but without giving us all the answers. It reminds me of Cy Twombly’s playful mark-making. Both artists use a kind of shorthand to capture a feeling, a sensation. Ultimately, art is an ongoing conversation, a back-and-forth between artists and ideas, and Weie's sketch is just one small, but vital, contribution to that dialogue. It embraces ambiguity, inviting multiple interpretations rather than fixed meanings.
