Hans-Christian Berg has an impressionist way of looking at nature. In his work “Color Space—Color lensing blind” he uses acrylics, which create an almost kinetic aesthetic experience. His site-specific artwork is an artistic interpretation of Pietilä’s architecture, which focuses on the use of light. Berg’s work questions the notion of nature with unexpected and radical color choices. His artworks create their own space, a kind of void. Hans-Christian Berg works with unexpected illusions, which are created in his spatial installations.
His work strongly suggests movement in front of the artwork in order to experience the optical changes. Often people might take extra steps, even dance in front of the artwork.
Berg works with various materials like metal, glass and plastics, but he is mainly known for this talent to challenge the immateriality of light. His artwork creates a symbiosis between light, material and space, which has an immaterial character somewhere in-between an image, form and space. The spectator’s orientation and direction alters the very perception of depth and tone, keeping them in constant flux.
