The circle has been a significant theme in my work for considerable time. My paintings are formed by the application of thin layers of acrylic colour, much like the process of building a glaze or lacquer. This results in new combinations of colour and effects which create disconcerting impressions on the eye.
My most recent individual exhibition was held in October 2003 with the regional art association, Skånes Konstförening. The previous year I showed at Konstfrämjandet`s Gallery St. Gertrude and also participated in the project "The Birth of an Atrwork", which culminated in a show at the Latin School Library in Malmö.
I graduated from Malmö Art College in 1997, and currently reside and have my studio in the city, which is in the south of Sweden.
