I am...
a 21 year old struggling aspiring artist living in Hong Kong, breathing in pollution and creating what you see on this page as my joy as well as peace of mind.

I was born in Germany, but i grew up in Sweden. I left Sweden when I was about 7 or 8 years old for Jakarta - Indonesia where I stayed for four years. after this I came to Hong Kong - 1998 - and graduated high school in 2005. The plan was to attend art college - I got into but had to cancel SVA in New York (School of Visual Arts) for unfortunate financial reasons which has since set me off track and turned the future into a massive blur of uncertainty. I've been in Hong Kong ever since, doing part time shitty jobs far out of my enjoyment and interest - were i to make this my future i would probably lose my head - and i am determined not to.

Although my hopes of pursuing art in college were lost, I’ve continued to create my work with the motivation from both viewers, their interesting derivations of my work as well as my great ambition of a future in creativity.

Three years ahead already. I will need a miracle. I really do.

If you have any thoughts or ideas on anything you see I would love to hear from you - it would be helpful and it would interest me.

I enjoy viewing young artist work, it has a freshness to it.The pop-surrealist movement,street art and low brow reflects the here and now. You are a young lady with alot to say.
