Objects Of Intimacy with Rebekka Borum

In this episode I have Danish artist, Rebekka Borum on the podcast.  Rebekka and I had an incredible dialogue around her work and her journey as an artist, going from studying technology and design, to working purely analog as a painter. We talked about her evolution as an artist, exploring differing kinds of substrates as well as the evolution in her understanding of her relationship to her creative process.  We dove deep into a discussion around abstraction, math, geometry, and how this kind of visual language can be a gateway to powerful emotional experiences.  Rebekah has such a disciplined and inspiring art practice and I know you all are going to love this episode and love her seeing her work! ------------------------ Rebekka Borum (b. 1992) is a visual artist from Denmark with a BA in Art and Technology from Aalborg University. In her artistic exploration she has developed an abstract, geometric, visual language inspired by mathematical formulas, yet expressed through the analogue medium; paint on canvas. This exploration has evolved throughout the years to be progressively more organic, both in appearance and medium. Drawing inspiration from the microscopic and macroscopic, she is delving into the very meaning of life through her vivid gradients painted on canvas and wooden sculptural objects. Borum's works have been shown in galleries and art institutions several places in Denmark for the last six years, as well as at Knew Conscious Gallery and Ryan Joseph Gallery in Denver, US. In her recent career, she has also created art installations for a hospital and a day care institution.
