About
I am a conceptual artist based between Stockholm and Italy, and I focus exclusively on recycling. All materials I use are reused – paper, beach finds and objects I collect in nature or in everyday life. For me, materials are not decoration but a language.
The materials help me express an idea, a feeling and a desire to communicate something. The result is not meant to be perfect in a traditional sense, but to carry a certain tone and be felt by the viewer. That is what matters to me.

Inspiration
When I create, I enter a focused state where the process is often fast and intense. What matters most is that the viewer feels something when encountering my art. We all carry different experiences, and therefore see different things in my works.
My inspiration comes mainly from nature, textures, contrasts and forms, but also from everyday life. Almost anything can spark an idea.
Karin has an extensive academic background with multiple medical degrees, complemented by a diploma in marketing. She has also gained substantial sales experience through her time in the pharmaceutical industry.
Her mother was an artist who inspired and taught me techniques and self-study.

She makes art from recycled materials, like the beach, wood, plastics, fabrics and paper discovered in nature. They combine the material into abstract art. Sometimes she paints the material.
The process starts with an idea and then selecting materials and, if necessary, colours.
As an abstract artist, she uses different materials and creates something raw, authentic, and open to interpretation. Her process is intuitive, spontaneous, playful, energetic, and dynamic.
