Samuel Bjorgum plays the parallax between participant and spectator, which are partial perspectives not necessarily overlapping with artist and audience. The paintings methodically overlap desire-engaging images regarded as problematic for their crystallization of object and subject. They aspire to an approachability and accessibility frustrated but not negated by their multiplicity and evasion. These small paintings are processes that oscillate between what would culturally be called hot and cold, approaching holism backwards through the social mess of division, immanently inconcludably.
