CURRICULUM VITAE
Einar Sandvold is a Norwegian painter based in Oslo. His work explores architectural forms, brutalism, and surreal landscapes, often depicting dystopian and monumental environments. Through painting, Sandvold investigates the psychological presence of constructed spaces, where rigid structures meet dreamlike and unsettling atmospheres. He has exhibited widely across Norway, Denmark, and the United States, including Galleri Briskeby, Galleri Tad, Oslo Prosjektrom, and Van Der Plas Gallery in New York.
