Artist Arena is a curated platform built by and for artists. Through physical exhibitions in Stockholm and our online marketplace, Artist Arena Market, we connect contemporary artists with collectors across the globe. We represent a diverse community – from emerging talents and growing voices to established names – and showcase original works in carefully selected and inspiring environments. 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

I am a Stockholm based tufting artist with a passion for yarn, colors and shapes.

Professionally, I worked with digital marketing and strategy for over 20 years, but as I started my own business and began freelancing a few years ago, the dream of combining creative digital work with creative hands on projects grew stronger.
A few months later, Tufterian, a combined office and textile art studio was born and now I tuft my own art pieces, tuft on commission and hold tuft classes.

Inspiration

My love for textile creativity developed as I played with the scraps from my mother's sewing projects, which were my personal treasure trove. It all began with hand-sewn creations for my Barbie dolls and evolved into knitting ties, vests, and revamping second-hand clothes during my teenage years.

My family has been a constant source of inspiration. Watching my mother and grandmother transform simple materials into beautiful, functional items instilled in me a deep appreciation for the artistry of textile crafts.
