For example that we are conscious of our environment and the things we call familiar. But what we fail to realize is that familiarity plus time numbs our perception and as a result we are affected by a loss that is subtle and similar to the way memories fade. When a thing is replaced or relocated it becomes an entity for thought, scrutiny and reflection, it may evoke fresh thoughts and ideas uncorrupted by the physical world. Often my works are paradoxical binaries between the lost and the found, the forgotten and the recalled, the experienced and inexperienced.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table id=\"images\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"3\" cellpadding=\"20\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"31%\" height=\"242\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art2016\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Mirror.72.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1287\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Mirror.72-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"Soerensen.Mirror.72\" width=\"202\" height=\"293\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"artwork_info\">\n<div id=\"artwork_info\">\n<div id=\"artwork_title\"><span class=\"accent\">&#8220;Posted&#8221;<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_created\">2014<\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_dimensions\">Donor poster, Urine, Polished stainless steel, Wood<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"40%\">\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1288\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.stepping-stool.72-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"Soerensen.stepping stool.72\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.stepping-stool.72-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.stepping-stool.72.jpg 478w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"artwork_info\">\n<div id=\"artwork_title\"><span class=\"accent\">&#8220;Stepping Stool&#8221;<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_created\">2014<\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_media\">Wood<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"29%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art2016\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Router.72.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1289\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Router.72-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"Soerensen.Router.72\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Router.72-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/art\/files\/2012\/03\/Soerensen.Router.72.jpg 478w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"artwork_info\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_title\"><span class=\"accent\">&#8220;Router&#8221;<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_created\">2014<\/div>\n<div id=\"artwork_media\">Wood<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Henrik Soerensen is a US based artist, originally from Denmark where he studied at the Culinary Institute of Denmark.
