"Sohlberg thought deeply about what it meant to be a human being in this huge overwhelming nature," said Oivind Storm Bjerke, the exhibit's curator. This insight encapsulates the profound existential themes that permeate Sohlberg's work, making him a unique figure in Symbolism and focusing on the human experience against nature's grand backdrop.
"Unlike many of his peers, Sohlberg preferred to work in isolation, unaffiliated with a school or group of artists," illustrating his distinct approach in a time dominated by artistic communities, which adds a layer of depth to understanding his motivations and the solitude reflected in his art.
