Artist Statement

I am deeply interested in people.
People are everything to me, they are my source for happiness, sadness and of course inspiration.
My aim is to create "real" images, I attempt to expose what is going on deep within the psyche of my subjects. My photographs are of authentic people with their emotional and physical baggage exposed.
When I create I tend and prefer to portrait people I have come to know intimately and have connected with.
I come from Stockholm, Sweden but I have lived in Edinburgh since 1998. Perhaps my attitudes are linked to my nationality; I have been intrigued and puzzled by the differences in culture. Here, the page 3 girls smile invitingly at us on a daily basis, but to introduce humanity "as it is" tends to offend people.


My photographs are a reaction to the fake visual culture of advertising and fashion. I do not set out to offend, but I feel an image should provoke a feeling; it should inspire or trigger something very deep within the observer.
People are amazing and portraying them as they are is what I do.

Since the late nineteenth century, avant-garde artists have engaged with the most advanced imaging technologies of their respective eras, including photography, film, television, and, most recently, the computer. The establishment of television in the late 1950s and early 1960s as the dominant mass medium in the United States occurred during a period in which artists who were dissatisfied with the postwar triumph of abstract painting began to rediscover the avant-gardes of the 1910s and 1920s especially Dada and Constructivism. In their attempt to bridge what they perceived to be the gap between art and life, many so-called Neo-Dada artists began to engage as critically with television as their predecessors had with photography and film. This exhibition will be the first ever to examine the impact of television on the visual arts in the United States and Europe at a crucial period in the development of both media. The origins of the media world we now inhabit in which images have come...

The Art Of Television

It is useful to view all of the media together, ranging from the individual performer appearing in the flesh before his audience to the complex presentations of electronic media. They may be compared in terms of the relationship of the performer to his audience. The media also vary in the kind of performance on which they can draw, either derivatively or creatively. Media borrow from each other just as Greek drama drew on ancient myths and legends and Renaissance drama on classical and contemporary material. The voracious demands of 20th century media have driven producers and scriptwriters to acquire the rights to existent material in other media, particularly the novel and drama. Radio and television have overlapped increasingly with journalism, with many journalists becoming broadcasters and commentators. However, much of the borrowing has been mechanical and technical rather than artistic in nature. The invention of magnetic tape for recording both sound and video signals ha...
