I am a Swedish multidisciplinary artist who crafts not only art but lasting memories, using live models in a dynamic creative process.
The Types of Art I Create
The Types of Art I Create
I create various forms of artwork, each with its own unique expression and material. My portfolio ranges from bodypaint photography and performance-based paintings to traditional paintings and resin sculptures.
Bodypaint Art
Transforming the human body into a canvas, blending bodypaint and light with photography.
Bodypaint Mixed with Painting
Combining photography with brushstrokes for unique mixed media pieces.
Performance Paintings
Created live during performances, capturing the energy of the moment alongside bodypaint and video art.
Paintings
Traditional paintings using contemporary techniques.
Video Performance
Combining video, performance, and storytelling to create immersive art experiences.
Sculptures
Sculptures made from resin with the help of the sun in a mix of form and texture.
The Art Creation Process
UNIQUE ART
My art-making process is unconventional, blending photography, video, and painting simultaneously. I use live models as canvases, capturing their painted bodies on film while also creating impressions on canvas laid on the floor. This approach allows me to produce multiple unique works in a single session.

ART HOUSE – EL MARTINETE VILLA
My work extends beyond individual pieces; I also craft immersive spaces and events, such as at the historic Villa El Martinete. This remarkable venue, rich with connections to Antonio Ruiz Soler and Picasso, provides an environment where art, history, and contemporary creativity come together for a full sensory experience.
Inspired by the legendary Yves Klein and sharing the same art house as Pablo Picasso himself.
