Projects
- Kurbits TreesThese wooden note holders are laser cut and etched from birch plywood. The two parts slot together, and the stand doubles up as a clip that can hold notes, business cards or photos. The design is inspired by the Swedish folk painting style “kurbits”, characterised by its whimsical and decorative stylisations of plants.
- Blue HourMyriorama* set featuring creatures from Swedish/Scandinavian folk lore: fairies, the Nix, mer- maid, tomte, and the lantern man. The title “Blue Hour” refers to the hour of dusk separating day and night, when everything is cast in blue but darkness still hasn’t fallen completely - and the imagination is captivated with the half seen, mysterious and magical.
- Forest Fire“Forest Fire” is a concertina book inspired by the big forest fire in Västmanland county, Sweden, in 2014. Read from left to right the imagery goes from the original old pine and fir forests - to the blaze that lasted for a week - to finally show the regeneration of plants that were found growing in the area shortly after. These plants are common after fires, and parts of the burnt areas were converted into protected woodland to study the regeneration of the undisturbed forest, and the plants and insects that thrive after wild fires. Original image is painted with gouache on tinted paper and is roughly 80cm wide.
