 The assymmetry in my art work is a way to stop the continually moving dance of life, to capture what the movements would look like, as if time had frozen.I believe assymmetry to be more of a challenge, and therefore a greater satisfaction to build and explore.

Most of the time, I think upon my brain like a whole, but I know it is composed of two very different parts, and they are assymmetrical to each other, in here my thoughts are dancing and breaking their way around.

-Romanticism was a strong dialogue between life and death. Do you think every person is broken or dancing between these two realities? You could say that, the dance is broken, when we don't realise that death is only a transmission of the soul from this density or dimension to another one.The life of a person can be seen broken as long as the spirit or soul is sleeping.I believe every person has an immortal part to it, call it soul or spirit, and realising this is the biggest life changing experience you can have.For me life sees driven by unseen forces, energy and spirit, so asymmetry in movement and dance keep the motion going on.

-What is your favourite romantic artist? Why? My favourite romantic artist, oh yes more to choose among, Goethe is high about them all, but that is more in his scientific approach toward the nature, not as an artist, I could recommend a painter like William Blake, and I love the fact, that he didn't go to school, but was educated at home by his mother, I think it was.In the works of Blake I see an originality and a tendency to embrace both his poetry and paintings in a mystical and symbolical language. I like that a lot.And I like the painting from "The song of Los".

-Which subject used to inspire you the most: life or death? I feel deeply attracted by life.As an artist, I find a huge satisfaction from my interaction with nature. Like the watching of the unfolding life in a plant. The process from seed to plant withholds a big mystery of life for me.My evergoing fascination of the information that is contained in a seed - for the future potentials given the right conditions - of a full grown and also seed producing plant. This is an amazing repeting celebration of life itself. As my ceramic art often has shapes, forms and twists, build upon observations  from what nature so wisely will do, when it is unspoiled , - I must draw the conclusion that I am driven and inspired by life.

Biography:

Ole Krongaard,  born in Denmark 1957. I make sculptural handbuilt ceramics.Large vessels are often build by using a "double - wall" technique, which allows me to do unusual cuttings and twistings.In this way the art-pieces can play with the illusion of form and intrigue the spectator to interact more closely with the work. Another line of work is my "growth-stones".I got this idea back in 1999 and I am still triggered by the way the pots and plants together creates an aestetically and pleasing whole.

Currently I am living and working near the woods and lake in the south of Norway.
