ARTWORK DESCRIPTION
The Thought Cloud
The Thought cloud/ Tankeskyen is a commissioned work for Scandic Sunnfjord Hotel & SPA. They gave Frøydis the keyword 'Sunnfjord' and freedom to paint anything within this theme. She came up with the Idea of an imagined thinking cloud.The landscape in the cloud is from Redalen, out towards Førdefjorden and Engebøfjellet in Norway. This fjord is planned to be filled with 250 million tons of mining waste from Engebøfjellet, by the mining company, Nordic Mining. The city in the background is inspired by Norilsk in Siberia. Norilsk is one of the most polluted places on Earth with an average life expectancy of 60 years.
