Tobias (b. Oslo, Norway) is an artist currently based in Copenhagen, Denmark, whose work explores the intersection of the natural world and the introspective nature of the human experience. Growing up near the forests of Oslo, Orderud formed a profound connection to the Norwegian landscape, a bond that is vividly expressed through his meticulous draftsmanship and nuanced use of color. In his art, nature becomes both a sanctuary and a mirror of solitude, a duality that also permeates his portrayals of figures and portraits. Through these works, Orderud invites viewers into spaces where experience and environment converge, prompting reflection on themes of connection, isolation, and the search for meaning.
