About

At the heart of my practice is a deep curiosity about sculpture and its dynamic relationship with space and emotion. I am drawn to the expressive potential of both natural and man-made materials, and I explore how their unexpected combinations can evoke a sense of mystery and meaning, but also what value we might give certain objects.

I approach materials and colours as if they carry unique personalities, allowing them to interact in ways that create compelling visual dialogues. By juxtaposing organic forms with industrial elements, I aim to challenge conventional perceptions, inviting tension, harmony, and a sense of transformation.

 Through abstract compositions, my work seeks to translate complex emotional landscapes and inner narratives. Themes such as desire, anxiety, euphoria, and release are central to this exploration. A recurring figure in my thinking is the ‘inner trickster’ — a playful, instinctual force that reveals the layered dynamics between our authentic selves and the personas we present to the world.

 My process often begins with an initial idea or impulse, which I explore through assembling materials. This evolves through stages of reworking, editing, and reassembling until a sense of tension, but also balance within their counterpart emerges. I consider space an active component of the work, responding to its conditions and treating it as another material. The environment often informs both the process and final installation.

 I work with a broad range of materials, including clay, plaster, wax, and manufactured elements such as rope, chain, Perspex, and various textiles. Found objects, like storm-fallen branches or discarded items are also integral; I typically paint or alter them to abstract their origins and encourage new interpretations.

 I am a Swedish artist based in London. I previously qualified as an architect and I have worked extensively with the fabric of buildings, space and surfaces. My work includes sculpture, paintings and site-specific pieces – Some settle some depart, Art made This, Gothenburg 2022, Strawhouse, Outpost, London 2019 and Trapphus, Bostadsrättsföreningen Furan, Gothenburg 2016. I have taken part in a number of group exhibitions including m2 ARTISTS: RECENT WORK 1 at ASC Gallery 2022,  Lines & Curves during the London Design Festival 2021, MK Calling, MK Gallery 2020, Threshold at m2 Gallery 2019,  Genesis Light Magic at St John in Bethnal Green 2018, Creekside Open 2017 as selected by Alison Wilding at APT Gallery, and monoChroma, Crypt Gallery 2016. I curated Scenograph, a group show at Obiter Studio, London, 2020 and the recent The comrades they were brave – We salute you!at 44 GRS Gallery 2022, which received ACE funding. In 2017 I took part in LCN Artist Development Programme at Space, London and in 2018-19 the Peer mentoring programme at Cubitt, London. During 2024-25 I was a participant at MASS Sculpture Programme, run by Turps Education, London.
