For the opening of Duvan’s new space at Konstepidemin, Ina Marie Winther Åshaug presents Fältdagbok, an exhibition alongside the release of a new zine of the same name by Sunless Press.

The zine consists primarily of drawings, while the exhibition brings together works from Åshaug’s ongoing artistic practice that relate to the publication. Working mainly in small formats with pencil, acrylic and watercolor, Åshaug draws from her immediate surroundings: domestic spaces, everyday objects and observations gathered close at hand. Figurative motifs often meet more intuitive and abstract gestures, with material, surface and the act of making remaining central.

Åshaug works spontaneously, often from a corner of her home and in close proximity to everyday life. This movement between daily routines and artistic work is reflected in a practice where observations can quickly become drawings, paintings or experiments with found materials. The small scale invites a similar proximity from the viewer — an attention to details, surfaces and subtle shifts that might otherwise pass unnoticed.
