My name is A.A.A. Sjöfelt and painting is my great passion.
Bio
I have been a art student at art schools both in Stockholm, Los Angeles, London and Paris. In Paris I study painting at Académie de la Grande Chaumière. I was an exchange student from Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design at the Otis Institute of Art and Design in Los Angeles where I was a student in liberal arts, painting, sculpture, Chicano Cultures and History of Art. I have exhibited at various exhibitions such as in the group exhibition “Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design 150 years” at Kulturhuset City Theatre. I have a University Diploma in Art Education and a Master of Education in Visual Arts and Design from Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design.
I am also a curious digital designer. I have worked many years with professional consulting with my own media company in London and Sweden after a leap of faith from Los Angeles. I live in Stockholm, I love to paint and I like nature and animals. I get a lot of artistic inspiration of the entire history of art which is available as a complete library of art images in our contemporary digital world and on the Internet.
Artist’s Statement
The alphabet of painting. ABC. An atemporal artist medium.
Slow images. I like it when the viewer can appreciate by mirror neurones a slow transformation over time in the painting of the artist’s efforts and spatial gestures have been recorded. Or when the viewer is required to an almost meditative perception of the complexity of the painting?
In the times of technological singularity we need narratives of humanity and our “slow” art more then ever as we are culturally shipwrecked in an ocean of digital entropy.
