The series

The Dreamy Lines series tries to abstract figurative objects with just some simple lines. The combinations of colors, dots and lines in the paintings are intended to create an dreamy effect which is a play on the imagination of the viewer.

 

The Apocalypse series is a dark representation of the future of mankind. It is a reflection as well as an warning of what could be a reality. With a dark expression, the series focuses on climate change and cruelty in the world.

The Dripping color series is a modern take on the abstract expressionism art movement of the 1940s. Inspired by Jackson Pollock’s action painting, this series tries to use similar technics but with more figurative motives.

 

The four emotions series is a representation of a theory about emotion. The theory suggest that all the different human emotions can be organized in to four basic emotions; anger, sadness, fear and joy. The series tries to express these emotions through four different seascapes.

The journey series follows the adventures of a manikin which symbolizes both mankind and the art world. The manikin travels through different fantasies, where the settings are bizarre and with different symbolic meanings.

 

The Abstracts series is a combination of different abstract paintings. The paintings vary in style, some with a hint of more figurative elements then the rest.

 

Random works are a combination of separate paintings which have been randomly combined and creates an incidental view of the different works presented.
