Golden globe

This large oil painting by Trond Berg-Nilssen has two main elements: the large, heavy man and a golden globe placed in front of him. The imposing, mass-like body creates an impression of power and dominance, while the golden globe symbolises a goal, a dream. The figure seems almost afraid, which can be read as a comment on materialism, on power, or on human unrest. Together these elements make a powerful image of humanity's search for meaning in the midst of chaos and unease.
