"Ansikt" by Ingeborg Skrudland



























"Ansikt" is an exhibition by Ingeborg Skrudland. One early Saturday morning my photo group and I traveled to Jæren Hotell, Bryne. Ingeborg Skrudland herself gave us the tour, which was really great cause then we got to know what she´d thought when she took all these pictures.

Ingeborg Skrudland is a freelance photographer, and at Jæren we didn´t only get to see her exhibition, but also some of her freelance work. She has taken the photos of the cows that decorates some of the rooms at Jæren Hotell.

I must say, of all the exhibitions I´ve been to, this was one of my favorites. She called it "Ansikt" which means face. Her photos were of people, some were very natural, but many of them stood out. She said that she liked people who tried to be different, someone who could colorize the entire photo without doing anything.

It was a really surprising display, she had actually decorated an empty pool at the hotel with her photos. I thought it was weird at first when they told me it was in a pool, but it kind of worked really well. The room was so bright that it made all the pictures stand even more out.


































There was a lot of variations in her display. The photos were taken
from different angles, different places, different people, and both close and far away. Even though she called the whole collection "Ansikt" (face), she also had pictures of fruits, berries, eggs and other common things.














































After the exhibition, we all went for a stroll in the park in Bryne with our cameras. The sun was up and we just went crazy. I had to work so I took the train, but the rest of the group went to another exhibition at Bryne Mølle. Herborg Kverneland had a display of calligraphy which is known to the class already. We learned to write calligraphy last year. 

All in all this Saturday was well spent, it´s always nice to see other peoples perspective.

Pictures will be coming soon!
