The book is in spanish. Hector Castillo from Bogotá, Colombia writes very poetic essays about Trees, the Night, Light, Death, Loneliness, Solitude, Compassion and I Have made 11 paintings illustrating his words.
It was a great challenge for me making these paintings. I wondered – “How do I illustrate Faith? or Compassion?” – I think I succeeded. Both Hector and I are very pleased with the final result, andI am impressed by the colours in the book. The printing is great.

The Colombian author Hector Castillo and I have started a project together. He writes poetic and reflective essays on various subjects and I make paintings to illustrate his words. It will be a philosophical art book. Some of the themes are: The Night, Life, The Death, Trees and The Soul.

We plan to finish our book this spring. Next step is to find the right publisher and get the book out in the world. The book is in Spanish, but we may want to translate it to other languages. But if you are able to read it in Spanish, you can enjoy the rich poetry of Hector Castillo. I think he is a wonderful author.

Stemningsfuld kolorist
Om Henrik Hytteballes billedkunst
Med en ekvilibristisk sanselighed og en udstrakt nysgerrighed overfor verden omkring os skaber Henrik Hytteballe fortællinger på lærred.

Indfaldsvinklen til maleriet er stemninger og motiverne opstår derfor først undervejs i processen, når farveplatten har sat kursen. I sidste ende er resultatet forbavsende levende og overlegent i sin afbalancering af talrige farvekomponenter. Arbejdsredskabet er overvejende spartel på lærred og heri ligger Hytteballes personlige signatur, hvor netop nuancerigdom og tekstur er afgørende i et akrylmaleri, som skabes i en vekselvirkning mellem vildskab og meditation.

I en hastigt opadgående spiral synes Henrik Hytteballe at sprænge det muliges kunst ud i kreative frembringelser da kunstneren indenfor de seneste år har vist at han er en overordentlig seriøs og talentfuld billedkunstner, ligesom han for længst har manifesteret sig som komponist og musiker. Sikke en rejse og sikke et talent!

It all started with a journey to Dahab in Egypt last Christmas and New Year.
Before we left Dahab, Gitte and Henrik decided that this was plenty of inspiration for a separate exhibition with paintings reflecting the impressions that Dahab gives so generously.

The atmosphere by the coast in Dahab is so relaxed – Dahab seems to be where chill-out was invented. People are friendly and you feel safe and secure although many of the citizens in Dahab are living on a very small budget.

We enjoyed the wonderful corals in the Red Sea, riding on camels. After hiking in the red desert we had delicious tea at the Bedouins and experienced a fantastic sunset followed by an amazing full moon.

We shared the streets with goats and sheep and a lot of children playing. Unfortunately the kids treated the wild dogs badly, but … Read More »
