Information about the artist / the group

Creating three-dimensional art is my passion and clay is my favorite material. My style is realistic and with my human sculptures I want to convey moods and feelings. I also throw pots on the wheel and take commissions. My pottery represents an earthy style and color scale. In addition to ceramics, I make needle felted wool paintings of animals. The wool provides a furry surface texture and softness that brings the portraits to life. My work space is situated at my homestead Nedergård in Kalax, where I also have a small farmshop. In addition to my own production, I teach art classes and workshops for all ages.

Program during Konstrundan

My summer workspace is in a farm building in our yard, where I also have a small farm shop. On Konstrundan, I offer an insight into the different stages of the creating process through work demonstrations in e.g. wheel throwing, sculpting and felting. In the farm shop there are finished products for sale and you can also get familiar with our bees, sheep and chickens.
