.about

I am a visual artist who works with graphic and sculptural art projects.

I am fascinated by the use of materials and the artistic process in printmaking.

Working with concepts and graphics in the 2 dimensional area also influences my interest in 3-dimensionality.

For years I have been organizing art projects in public spaces as part of the artist team with a focus on sculpture, nature and technology.

About me I am a visual artist who works with sculptural and graphic art projects. After studying Graphic Design& Fine Arts in Hannover/Germany and several years of graphic work in traditional advertising agencies and establishing a graphic workshop in Berlin, I moved to Larvik, Norway in 2007. Here I set up my own artistic workshop for printmaking and digital work. Based on graphic concepts implemented in 2-dimensional print graphics, my artistic ambitions also extend to 3-dimensional sculptural work. The center of my life is right in front of a Larvikite quarry and the direct connection to stone, industry and nature influences my artistic implementations. As an artist team, I work together with the sculptor Martin Kuhn on art projects in public spaces and we complement each other in the interests of our respective subject areas of graphics, concepts and sculpture. A continuation of our collaboration is the establishment of the “Kunstfelt Stålaker” with the aim of opening up the artistic activities on site to an audience and artists In my printmaking work, as well as in my sculptural projects, I am always fascinated by a targeted statement and the development of artistic processes using any inspiration from thematic templates and materials. What's exciting for me are art projects and productions that have a recognition, confront questions, find a name and convey identity.

/about.PrintMaking

Searching for material, printing and manipulating visual content. By printing the template, the process of time is interrupted, documented and released for individual associations.

/about.ART in PUBLIC

The collaboration with the sculptor Marin Kuhn offers an interesting challenge in the area of 3-dimensional art in public space. For many years, our work has been closely related to the concept, graphics and sculpture and we have participated in competitions for art in public space.
