Just over a year ago, local newspapers featured Emmanuel Hølaas and his journey into the world of visual art. Hyperrealism is an art form that demands not only exceptional precision and technical skill, but also extraordinary patience. Impressed and inspired by having such a talented artist in Steinkjer, Turid Saursaunet from Steinkjer Pridesaw the opportunity for a collaboration.

Over the course of a year, we had the privilege of following the creation of three remarkable portraits.

Throughout the process, Emmanuel shared his progress on Instagram, and now you have the opportunity to experience these works up close. The project has attracted growing attention, leading to an invitation to visit the London studio of Kelvin Okafor, one of the world's most acclaimed hyperrealist artists.

In addition to the exhibition itself, the portraits will also be presented in a unique way at Steinkaret. We believe Emmanuel has an exceptionally bright future ahead of him, and we are proud to support his first solo art exhibition in Norway.
