Ole Bjørn Valen is known for his vibrant and colorful style, often referencing Pop Art as he uses well known people and objects. He paints nature, politics and various institutions of power, often with a surreal twist. In later years he has taken the name “Matrix Valen”.
This is due to his exploration of cultural, social, or political environment in which something develops, which the definition of Matrix itself. Matrix is related to the latin word for “Mother” ( Matrix ), which originally meant pregnant animal or breeding female, and was later generalized to mean “womb”. Today Matrix is a synonym of womb. A place where a seed, by itself – or in the form of an idea, thought or value system – grows and get nurtured. Whether this is a “positive” or “negative” casting spoon for a creation, Valen leaves up to the viewer. The artist is showing us various matrixes as the part of the Ego’s Playground, we all are playing in here on Earth. Judging it, is not his cup of tea. It is observing what is, and could be. Playing with reality and illusions, “fake news” and conspiracy theories.
– Art is an arena free of sensorship. One of the few places left where we can think and express freely. I find that appealing. Some might already have thoughts around certain subjects that I display, others view mindboggling concepts and get surprised. I love to break up matrixes! Both in people’s mind and on the canvas.
