Trine Lund is an artist who embraces the beauty of the unconventional. Her work is driven by the raw, unfinished, and often incomprehensible aspects of life that others may overlook. She allows materials to guide her, combining them into new forms and expressions, uncovering hidden beauty in imperfection.
Living with autism and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Trine’s art serves as both a creative outlet and a refuge. From early childhood, she crafted her own world—a sanctuary where she could find comfort and clarity amidst a world that didn’t always understand her unique way of perceiving and feeling. This deeply personal experience fuels her artistry today, as she explores alternative ways of being, acting, and sensing, providing a powerful source of meaning in her creations.
For Trine, art is a liberation from the confines of traditional understanding. Her work challenges viewers to see the value in what doesn’t immediately make sense and encourages a broader perspective on the world. Her approach to what she calls "tenderness activism" reflects a belief that knowledge is ever-evolving, and understanding grows over time. This philosophy is not only evident in her art but also serves as her personal testament to living authentically in a world that often demands conformity.
