- New Exhibition "KARL PERSSON - ART" Neue Ausstellung -
Karl
Persson is a 32 year old artist who was born in Sweden and has lived in
Australia for most of his life. After completing a diploma of visual
art in 2003 He began his career as an artist, exhibiting in Australia,
America, Germany, and Italy.
He has also been published in
numerous books such as, “Hunt and Gather”, and “Metamorphosis”, and
magazines such as “Girls and corpses”, “Tattoo Fest”, “Inside Artzine”,
“Juxtapoz”, “Virus”, and “fire Mass”.
Perssons’ art can be seen
as an exercise in exploring the hidden, yet fundamental elements of the
human condition. Erotic themes, and motifs of death, fear, and anxiety
often inform Karls’ subjects. He draws much of his influence from
dreams and experimentation and paints what he considers to be honest
projections of the subconscious mind, without bias towards what may
been seen as beautiful.
He currently lives in Berlin.
