MY TECHNIQUE

For me, everything is connected on a deeper level, and in my paintings, I superpose images from authentic nature, and symbols from science, texts and mythology.
Isn't this the way we experience our reality? The past meets the future, in an always-changing magic world, a multidimensional world.
I want my paintings to be openings towards freedom, curiosity and creativity...to discover the hidden patterns and the beauty around us.
When I am in my studio, I follow my inner guidance and I try to create what wants to unfold. It is a process when I am working fast on many paintings, playing with the unknown taking form on the canvas.
I start to "activate" the canvas and I create my paintings from the inside out, using very thin papers that I glow on top of each other, every paper with its drawings and prints.
I also paint and print directly on the canvas using many layers of transparency.
It is for me a way to create depth, hiding certain images and letting others be seen on the surface.
I started my artistic career, by creating handmade paper, first in a papermill in Sweden and then in Japan with kozo fibres.
It was fascinating! I loved it and I developed my very own technique.
When I create my artistic papers, I first print my images on very thin papers, that I mix into the paper pulp to make a total unity between the paper and the artistic image.
I made big papers for screens, and also paper installations playing with the light and with the movements.
