THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND THE PAINTINGS

Ole Hedeager works from a dogma philosophy in his works.

Should one use a single word around philosophy itself, that is the word; Identity

Behind it is the sentence from the famous Danish philosopher; Søren kirkegaard. It reads thus; – “Life is understood backwards – but must be lived forwards” In practice, that phrase is used to show that we are in constant change, based on the past.

It is expressed, for example, in the technique itself, where one has to wonder whether one gathers or separates and, for example, faces in faces that represent ancestors, family, friends, genes and others who have left their mark on one’s identity.
