Two illustrations I made for the magazine Bang on the hunger riots in Sweden in 1917. About hunger, feelings and weakness today and the heritage of the socialist fights in the past.

Illustration made for the magazine Brand with the theme (Trans national) Social strike

So the process to build a doll on an armature has begun, yey!

Back to school and character design!

Vacay doodles

Just doodled some on the sunny balcony

Semestern har börjat!

Some backgrounds I made, and a wip animation

The hospital building is still there, and is know renovated to (quite) fancy apartments. 

A short little stop motion about two nordic lemmings in Kilpisjärvi. Done by me and Eleonor Frankenberg

Elle, me and our teacher Lina went and our goal was to get inspired but also do something right there at the place. Small or big. And this is what we did there. We started to dig holes in the snow, thinking of cover, and somehow we started to think about the lemmings. Building their underground tunnels.. Where are they in wintertime? They are a natural part of the ecological system in the mountains.  ..Also we got a secret little message from the earth from within, I think? 

An illustration I made for the anarchist magazine Brand. The article is about fighting occupants in Krakow, Poland, that have been living in houses that the state got after the owners died (mostly after the Second WW). Now there has been a huge problem with stakeholders making fraud, faking that they know the owners and claim the houses which truly not are theirs. 

A comic I made for the anarchist magazine Brand discussing organizing strategies on the web. I thought I’d be sharing some of my thoughts on selfies as activism and in what way they are or aren’t and could or couldn’t be used as feministic tools.
