Artworks

I am Lars – and this is my art.

The ring is my form.

My work emerges from material, memory, language and ideas. It explores the personal as well as social and political themes, transience as much as poetry – and sometimes simply a question with no definitive answer.

Every ring tells its story.

A ring does not have to be wearable.

It can be an object. A sculpture. A thought.

What remains is the form of the ring.

Verba Sacra Aeterna.

Seven rings.

Eternal, sacred words such as Non nobisTempus fugitPater noster and others take form.

The Four Seasons

Four rings – four seasons.
This series combines natural materials such as wood, grain and pigments into wearable miniatures of the yearly cycle.
Inspired by Vivaldi and the shifting elements, they speak of change, of colour, and of time itself.

Earlier Works

Before bodies of work such as The Four Horsemen and Verba Sacra Aeterna emerged, my artistic practice developed through individual works and experiments.

Material, memory, personal experience and a fascination with the unusual often formed the starting point.

These works are part of my journey. Some ideas have remained, others have changed – and some can still be found in the works I create today.
