Animation 2022

I am a Swedish 2D animation filmmaker, specialising in pre-production based work with a focus on character design and visual development. I love exploring story, and working with humour and versatile characters. With a keen interest in art history, a lot of my influences are drawn from oil paintings and form, something which carries a red thread through my work, and is particularly explored in my film ‘Offerlamm’.
