To me, this meant I could make editions of my work and make all unique and quite different from each other! Thats when I started incorporating graffiti and graffiti influenced scribbles into my work. One of the things I found when doing just stencil work was how I got bored of it after a while. I still love cutting stencils, but I felt my work lacked some vibrancy and some elements to break with the rigid and graphic look of the stencil. “I get a bit of everything when I’m doing my paintings!” Your works are recognisable, they are vibrant and contrast by both colors and themes, how would you describe your style? How you quickly you found your own ”style” ?

Since then I’ve followed both the graffiti scene and later the fast growing stencil and streetart scenes.Īfter my first stencil in 2004 that took over more and more of my time finally resulting in working with a combination of graffiti and stencil full time since 2012. After watching it for years and sketching throughout mid school I tried painting my first piece in the early 2000’s. I’m a 34 year old, Norwegian stencil artist living and working in Oslo, Norway! How did you started to do graffiti and stencils?ĭuring my primary school years I travelled alot with the subway from my school to my friends house and early found an interest in the ever changing graffiti along the subway line. First the basic introduction – can you tell us who are you, what are you doing, where are you coming from?
