I long for stillness. To pause and let the colors speak before words do.
I paint intuitively, often without a plan. The colors meet, rest, and the painting shows the way. It emerges layer by layer, at its own pace. For me, painting is about balance, not through rules, but through listening.
Nature is my foundation. The forest's silence, the softness of moss, the rhythm of earth, it lives in my brushstrokes. Since moving to Ystad, the light, the sea, and the sky have become part of my expression. Water often returns as a mirroring element, carrying movement and feeling.
Meditation, contemplation, and The Gene Keys influence how I work. They deepen the relationship between the inner landscape and what takes form on canvas.
Stillness is the thread running through everything. I want to create quiet rooms, places where time slows down and you can meet yourself.
I feel a closeness to Carl Jung and his idea of the image as a path to the self. Not as theory, as a lived process where the inner world takes form through symbols and presence.
This has become especially clear in my work with Bodymapping. By working close to the body, its memories and rhythms, an entire series has emerged. Bodymapping is a listening. A way to let what's stored in the body find visual expression, without needing to be explained.
In these works, the intuitive meets the subconscious. Each painting becomes a step in an inner mapping, where the image carries what doesn't yet have words.
My studio is in Ystad. A place for work and meetings, which also functions as my personal gallery.
