Biography
Statement
The nature is often in my work as a theme and a profound ground.
As a kind of scene where different events are played. People often mention that it feels like Swedish and Scandinaviens nature, with bleched light colors and a white light.
The folkcloric northern naturehistory, endless landscapes where the smallness of man gets a specific role. Uninhabited areas where man even makes a print, the history and histories that breaths and are told throughout time. It may feel like the language is shifting, like in a timless story that gets its own life. The viewer can choose ones own story.
In this landscape, I as my own explorer, wish to continue the journey, to se what stories that will be played. Or maby its in the nothingness, an emptyness that are waiting for something to appear.
Its a kind of mystery thats interest me, the hidden parts that might be there or not, the things we cannot see and the things we see, what is it that really surround us ?
Sometimes i work only through fantasy, memories. Sometimes I start with a photo from a paper, but the motive always become my own, its never an detailed imaging. The tecnice is mostly in oil or acrylic on canvas, sometimes with fragments of pastel, pencil and chalk.
