Fine Art
About
My work is about people, memories, personal stories and interesting moments in history or current events. We are an incredibly interesting and complicated species, and if you listen attentively, you will find fascinating stories everywhere.

Being a full time artist was always the dream, but the practicle angel on my left shoulder tended to be louder than the dreamer. I went to pursue a path in psychology and alternative therapy. The human psych and its manifestations always rung my curiosity bell and at the time, diving deep into Froyd´s writing and my own demons was what seemed right. It was a long and incredible journey, learning about and experiencing the unconscious mind, it´s physical manifestations and our sense of reality.
Over a decade later, that dreaming angel could take no more and did everything in its power to make me listen to it. I packed my bags, left everything behind, and got on a plane to Europe, the birth place of the Renaissance, to go after my personal rebirth.

My work explores the essence of humanity. What are the stories we tell ourselves? How is the past connected to the present and the future?
I explore these questions by combining the old and the new. I create ancient replicas and artifacts from diffferent cultures and use them as ´canvases´ to explore the connection of their past to our present. My process starts with the traditional medium of oil painting and then I morph the painting into something new, using new digital technology. In the hidden places inside the dialog between ancient and new, traditional methods and high end tech, cultures of the past and modern globalism - lies the essence of humanity.
I have been making Cryptoart since 2017, exploring the impact this revolutionary technology is having on society. I use NFTs in some of my work to bridge the digital and the physical.
My work has been exhibited and is in private collections around the world, including collections of prominent figures and companies in the Crypto ecosystem.
