BAKAOS
BAKAOS
Art for peace
BAKAOS' colorful philosophical works of life include that we must care for each other and accept, embrace and make room for each other's differences. That it is our differences such as appearance, ethnicity, culture, abilities, thoughts and sexuality etc. that makes the world an exciting place to be and that allows us to do more together. When we accept and embrace each other's differences, we contribute to peace, globally, nationally and locally. Both inner and outer peace.
BAKAOS illustrates this diversity through different beings who wrap themselves in each other and who together create balance in the world - and not least in the art work itself. The care depicts BAKAOS through motifs where the big one takes care of the small one.
BAKAOS never received instruction in art, techniques or color theory. One can put a canvas in front of her and then she starts working within 10-20 seconds. She works intuitively with great empathy and spiritual presence.
In 2021, BAKAOS was awarded an honorary prize / silver medal, from the French association ASL, est. in Paris in 1915, (ARTS SCIENCES LETTRES) honoring and recognizing people who work in the fields of art, science and words.
BAKAOS, with the birth name Barbara Kaad Ostenfeld, comes from Værløse, where you can visit her studio by appointment.
