Roderick Hietbrink

«Live every moment so as not to regret what you are about to do.
You’d never let the darkness get the best of you.
Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, and dreams are forever.
The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.
All you need in life is a little bit of magic.
Come inside! It’s fun inside»
– Mickey Mouse

With humor, absurdity and the uncanny, Roderick Hietbrink invites the audience to contemplate and reevaluate life and death, nature and artifice. Three new works have come to occupy each their room in the gallery. Used aquariums, that in a previous life contained fish and other marine animals, take centre stage. Each has been transformed to a form of meta space, containing echoes of life in a future past. Drawing inspiration from Michel Foucault’s concept of Heterotopia, Everything Yellows creates spaces that are simultaneously physical and mental, real and utopian. 

Roderick Hietbrink (f. 1975) lives and works in Oslo. He holds an MFA from the Piet Zwart Institute, an BFA from the Academy of Fine Arts St. Joost in Breda, and is a former resident of the Rijksakademie. Former solo exhibitions include Roderick Hietbrink at RAKE in Trondheim, Soil, My Innards at Kunsthall Oslo, and The Living Room at Stedelijk Museum i Amsterdam. Additionally, Hietbrink’s works have been displayed in a number of collective exhibitions at venues such as the Norwegian National Museum, the 33rd Sao Paulo Biennial, Oslo Kunstforening, LIAF, and the 5th Moskva Biennal. Hietbrink’s work has been collected by the Stedeljik Museum in Amsterdam, Museum Voorlinden Wassenaar and the Royal Dutch Foreign Ministry.
