EXHIBITED WORKS

Henrik Delehag has a nomadic relationship to his adopted city. Sketchbook always at hand, he gathers faces and places on his long excursions. For as long as he can remember, he has been compiling portrait-like studies in pen and ink, inspired by his encounters with the city.

These observations have grown into a collection of portraits. He calls them Adults - metaphors for the questions that he continues to raise about the status quo; the cult of Adulthood and the set of ideas that we are governed by, often without any questions asked. The Adults among us and within us.

In these works faces have become contorted, abstracted and rendered in his unique typographic style to capture comprehensively aspects of Adulthood. They have become, for him, reflections of what he considers to be his own shortcomings as a reluctant adult, but equally, reflections of modern society’s failure to question and reimagine the nature and responsibilities of Adulthood.
