Ebbe Stub Wittrup

Work from Overgarden.

“The question of what is real has been debated throughout the entire history of humanity: Is it what our senses tell us, or is there a world beyond what we can immediately perceive? In this philosophical field, Ebbe Stub Wittrup explores life’s enigmatic layers by highlighting phenomena and material drawn from the periphery of culture. His work emphasizes the ’otherness’ of reality which, as the art historian Rune Gade has put it, runs like an esoteric undercurrent beneath the realistic subject matter. Since the late 1990s, Stub Wittrup has been extending his photographic prac- tice, in a movement from a neo- realistic snapshot aesthetics to a more conceptual sensibility with historical and literary dimensions. In the solo exhibition The Voice of Things, this movement finds expres- sion in a cross-media field in which fiction, mythology and theosophy are interwoven with optical and co- lour-psychological phenomena….” – Anna Holm
