About the artworkStudies of People and Myself Exercising is a sketch book, in which Idun Baltzersen shows people’s unvarnished everyday life. Behind the images lie hours of experience of bodies exercising and studying themselves. With bold ink lines, she draws them almost as if they were sculpture studies. One of her inspirations is the renaissance artist Piero della Francesca’s (1415–1492) paintings of people posing. Idun Baltzersen often uses her own body and face as a reference point when highlighting how social media affect how we present ourselves to the gaze of others.
