Indepth Arts News: "Sol Kjøk: Book of Swells" 2008-07-05 until 2008-08-31 Nordic Museum of Drawing Laholm, , SE Sweden
Finally, turning collages to drawings and paintings, in which the visual end of a very long process can be seen. Sol Kjøk winds human body images into each other, tangled up or overlapped. In the distance flowing lines bind together the forms into a complex "människoform". In the black and white images, sometimes a red ball or red braid is incorporated. The latter weave together the bodies, which are neither expressed as feminine or masculine. The ball closes the circle back to the original natural experiences in the studio. Sol Kjøk wants to get the audience to experience the feeling of how their own bodies might feel, slowly slipping through the air.
Sol Kjøk has participated in separate and group exhibitions in the United States, Canada, Colombia, Norway, France and Germany. Her works are in private and public collections in the United States, Colombia, Norway, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria and England.)
