Jeg er en dansk billedkunstner, som i mange år primært har arbejdet som underviser i kunsthistorie, tegning og grafik.
Som udøvende kunstner er jeg autodidakt, men har siden 2016 været aktiv udstiller i kunstforeninger og gallerier.
Jeg finder inspiration i naturen, landskabet, i dansk arkitektur og i skandinavisk design. Har jeg især været fascineret af at arbejde med papir, og collagen har været mit foretrukne udtryksmiddel.
De senere år har jeg fået en stor kærlighed til grafisk tryk og jeg har i corona-tidens isolation genopdaget skønheden ved det klassiske papirklip.
Kærligheden til farve, form og tekstur, og den rene glæde ved at skabe, er min største motivation.
Papir er et meget sart materiale. Det mørner og gulner og farvet papir falmer meget let ved almindeligt dagslys. I mit arbejde er jeg særlig optaget af farver, kompositioner og teksturer, hvorfor jeg bruger den eksklusive giclée-artprint til mine tryk. Her anvendes lysægte pigmentfarver som forstærker farver og tekstur, og jeg opfatter hvert tryk som et kunstværk.

I am a Danish visual artist who for many years has primarily worked as a teacher of art history, drawing and graphics. As a performing artist, I am self-taught, but have since 2016 been an active exhibitor in art associations and galleries.
I find inspiration in nature, the landscape, in Danish architecture and in Scandinavian design. I have been particularly fascinated by working with paper, and collage has been my preferred means of expression. In recent years I have developed a great love for graphic printing and in the isolation of the corona I have rediscovered the beauty of the classic paper cut. The love of color, shape and texture, and the sheer joy of creating, is my biggest motivation.
Paper is a very delicate material. It softens and yellows and colored paper fades very easily in ordinary daylight. In my work I am particularly interested in colors, compositions and textures, which is why I use the exclusive giclee art print for my prints. Here, lightfast pigment colors are used which enhance colors and texture, and I perceive each print as a work of art.
-----------------
With my art I want to give a signal of the time we live in. Since World War II we have experienced ups and downs. Right now we are facing a challenging period in which a worldwide pandemic is affecting our everyday lives. We also experience that the old balance of power between East and West is faltering. Perhaps in that situation we need to cut all unnecessary glitter, all lies and concealments away and face the naked truth.
