Our mission is to build a positive, supportive community that empowers more artists to grow, reach new audiences, and pursue their dreams. For collectors, we offer direct access to unique contemporary art and the opportunity to invest in a wide range of artistic expression.

About

Since graduating from HDK, Christopher has worked as an architect and interior designer in Gothenburg, where he has contributed to and designed a long list of acclaimed environments and buildings.

Parallel to, or rather as a
natural part of, architecture, he has maintained an interest in expressing himself through images, often using pen and paper, but also models and material collages. A way to quickly illustrate his thoughts and visions.

Inspiration

In the mysterious and dreamlike world of collage, impressions and whims are mixed with images, glue, objects, and painting in an intuitive process that sometimes spans quite long periods. The result balances on the border between the beautiful, the pleasant, and the dirty, raw. Between body and surface. Between color and black-and-white.
Between dream and reality…

HDK, Gothenburg 1987-1991

In his free artistic creation, he works broadly and moves between different techniques and forms of expression: watercolors, drawings, painting, and last but not least—as seen here—collage.
