This ‘Globe Head’ measures 100cm x 120cm and is made with acrylic marker and paint. In March ‘25 it was exhibited at the first Art Fair I have ever participated in which was ‘Art Hillerød’ in Denmark. Here it got chosen by @christinefeldthaus for a Curators Price (see photo) and she had this to say about the painting:
Danish version: “Jeg har valgt Hedda Hondon Raa fordi dine billeder taler direkte til min fantasi. Man kan mærke, at du godt kan lide at være ekspressiv og spontan. Og som du sagde, da jeg kort talte med dig på udstillingen “jeg gør stort set ingen brug af tankevirksomhed” - og det giver faktisk beskueren/mig mulighed for selv at fortolke og inddrages. Billederne bliver i min optik interaktive - jeg må selv om, hvad jeg får ud af dem - og så kan jeg godt lide den legesyge stil.
Der er både kulør og humør - og alt muligt andet mere dystert at gå på opdagelse i.
English “I have chosen Hedda Hondon Raa because your paintings speak directly to my fantasy. One can feel that you like to be expressive and spontaneous. And, as you said, when I spoke to you before the exhibition “I hardly don’t use any thought in the process” - and that actually gives the viewer/me an opportunity to make my own interpretation and involvement. In my opinion the paintings become interactive and its up to me what I get out of them. I also like the playful style. There is color, cheer and lots of other gloomy stuff to examine.
The painting is also part of my series ‘HHR Copying HHR’ where I make original copies and on the last photo you can see the first original copy of this painting numbered 1/1 (1 for the original and 1 for the original first copy)
