“Behind the laughter, the light flickers.”

Still Standing captures the paradox of performance — the showman’s smile that hides exhaustion, doubt, and quiet melancholy. Klementsen’s portrait radiates energy, yet beneath the riot of neon lies stillness — a man holding his own mask in place.
The work’s electric palette amplifies this tension: hot purples and oranges pulse like stage lights, while the fixed grin reveals both resilience and fragility. It’s a tribute to every artist who keeps performing when the applause fades — standing tall, but trembling inside.
A portrait not of comedy, but of courage. “The comedian smiles not because he’s happy — but because he must.
‘Still Standing’ is your mirror to that truth — an anthem for every soul who performs through pain and still finds light.”

One Stand-Up guy asked me if I could see that he was actually down during the show. Yes, now that you mention it... I've been to a few shows with this comedian, and he had a different feel this evening. - I could imagine a completely normal job every now and then. Electrician, for example, said, the open Standupper - who sat at a table and talked to me as if we had become old acquaintances. On one and the same show I tell the
