Describe your art and where your inspiration comes from?
I work in several different media. I feel that over the last few years I have created my own personal universe, which I express through drawing and painting, collage, sculpture and form. I strive to be true to my own aesthetics and judgment. I'm always very inspired by my grandmother. I am inspired by her lifestyle, her energy, her old studio and her collection of art, books and music! I am also often fascinated by characters and moods from movies and books. Especially movies directed by wes Andersson and Sophia Coppola - I think they are very cool because they really manage to create exciting characters and universes.
What do you wear when you work?
I like working in loose and comfortable clothes, and of course something can take some paint splatter. When I work at the press workshop at my school, I always wear a white coat. It's also important that what I wear has some good pockets for my tools and my iPhone - so I can hear music or podcasts while I work.
