Working in oil, Hanne Giacobbe Helleberg creates abstract and still life paintings defined by vivid, self-mixed color and textured surfaces. Based in Oslo and trained as a painter, she draws on a background in painting, knitting, and dance that began in her teens. Helleberg incorporates fabric, metal, and found objects to expand her material palette. Color often sparks the beginning of each work, anchoring compositions that evoke the energy of landscapes, shifting moods, and nature’s raw beauty.
