Information about the artist / the group

I am a multidisciplinary visual artist; I create graphics, ceramics, plywood installations, I draw, paint, embroider, and write.
The proximity of the sea is especially evident in my graphic works, but in pieces made with many other techniques, I address intergenerational burden, shame, and the destruction of forests. I consider it important to act as an artist in the village community and to bring people together through art.

Program during Konstrundan

Presentation of my studio located in the old chicken house of a post-war style farmhouse. On display are works created in various materials over the years. The yard also has an old barn building, which has been partially adapted for exhibition and event use, where large tempera paintings are on display.
