Roalkvam explores contrasts and connections between the strict and the rich, the ascetic and the sensual. The exhibition digs into the meeting between the harsh, cold industrial, represented by aluminum, and nature's own raw materials such as stone, wood, cones, and seashells. This contrast is woven together by Roalkvam's creative will and a sense of balance created through visual imbalance.

Geometric shapes like the square, circle, triangle, and line are investigated as structures challenging our perception of space. The exhibition offers a visually impressive, meditative space where Roalkvam's art extends far beyond the physical. It invites the viewer into a sweeping, precise artistic gesture that inspires and challenges all of us.

The exhibition provides a foundation for both intellectual and emotional immersion, encouraging the viewer to explore the role of art in new ways.
