Profile

Originally from northern Lapland but now living in Uppsala, Sweden. I work mainly in weaving, embroidery and knitting.

Illusions and shadow effects are some things I often return to in my works. The way our minds take in information and some times distorts it and deceives us fascinates me. how you can trick the eye and make something that seemingly distorts space or crosses dimensions

I’m always open for commissions and collaborations
