"I am not a magician, but an observer. I see something in the real world and put it into a new context in the pictures. My way of representing wants to make the incomprehensible comprehensible and vice versa the comprehensible incomprehensible. I don't want to conjure up powers in order to gain strength and inspiration from them. Power belongs to the creator of all that I, in my attempt to comprehend, paint. I only distort the view and direct it to a possible meeting of 'opposites'. Perhaps these opposites are not so different from one another, but have the same origin within themselves."  Henrik Frei Larsson
