About me
My interest in art and design started here in Norway at art schools, first in Aalesund and later in Asker, and then a school for exhibition design in Oslo.
I have worked for several years with visual communication and exhibition design in commercial environments, from concept development to decoration of business premises with photo and graphic installations.
I now work with visual arts and graphic design full-time.
Artist Statement
I am an artist who explores the subtle interplay between the ethereal and the tangible. My works seek to find the intersection between abstract forms and subtle realism. Through color, texture, and composition, I explore the deeper layers of our experience – from the mystical and dreamlike to the concrete and down-to-earth. I wish to invite the viewer to reflect on what cannot always be expressed in words, and to find beauty in the unexpected.
