About me and my perform…
For this show I decided to understand an thought I’ve had for a extended time. That was to use many of my old drawings and give them life in a considerably larger format and in new constellations. I also like to use diverse varieties of materials, and had been thinking about drawing on plywood. The outcome of that perform is what I show here at Clarion. I like the complete notion of the plywood changing more than time, therefore producing the complete image change with it!I locate inspiration in every thing from old images, childhood-memories or pure imagination… to the chair I sat on getting coffee this morning. Often, I randomly place the drawings collectively with no a clear thought of how it will look in the finish. I like the unexpected outcome and how the photos collectively look to tell a story. It can also start with a penciled leaf, turning into a forest. That process is really thrilling and funny, to see what becomes of a simple line on a piece of paper… or wood.I’m 36 years old and was raised in Jönköping in the southern parts of Sweden I now live and operate in Gamla Enskede right here in Stockholm. Thanks for your time and I hope you will take pleasure in my pictures!
