Freestanding sculptures
Sculptures that stand on their own, made from scrap, wire and clay.
Wall sculptures
Pieces made to hang on the wall, built from the same materials.
My story
Gothenburg is my home and my inspiration. I walk its streets and harbors looking for discarded metal and forgotten objects, and give them a second life as sculptures.
Clay & metal
I work with contrasts. Soft clay and hard metal are opposites, and it is in the meeting between them that things happen.
