About Me.

I am a Norwegian Artist based in Bergen, working with textile and sculptural works. I hold a Master and a Bachelor degree in Fine Arts from the Art Academy, Department of Contemporary Art in Bergen and in 2023 I was honored to do an exchange at Kyoto City University of Arts in Japan. I also hold a Diploma in fine art from the School of Art in Bergen from 2019. My work touches upon issues related to time, decay, and the body. I investigate these topics trough an intuitive process often resulting in three-dimensional works. My works have been shown at amongst other KODE (NO), the Central Museum of Textiles in Łódź (PL), IRGI galeriia (LT), Galleri Salhus (NO) and Haugesund Kunstforening (NO) among others.​
