Welcome to my Profile Page

I am a mostly self trained book maker and book artist. As a teenager I was an avid reader and wrote several novels and poems for my own entertainment. I learned to play a couple of instruments, and tried myself as a composer; – again for my own amusement, and not searching for an audience. I painted – but in a style that was considered “wrong” by my teachers. And so, although I was creative all that time, it did not cross my mind to give the arts or crafts more room in my life than as something very private at the end of the day. - And so I studied Math, and made my PhD before I realized what I really want to do.

Since 2008, I have been working self employed as a book maker. My main ambition, however, lies in the field of book arts. I have been trying to incorporate unusual materials in my works, investigating how far I can go, culminating in works with salt dough. I have been interested in the reception of literature, and tried to decode its magic through my work. Only recently I found a way to reconnect with mathematics: In this ongoing work I feel I am finally finding a way to become whole through my art, to connect my different interests, and the seemingly disconnected parts of my biography.

Thanks so much for your comment on my story. It (and 12 others) are destined to be bound into an artist book in the near future. I am still exploring your web site and love your books, particularly the very small ones.
