Selected Projects

01  Aeolian

A series of fine art prints with AR components, exploring invisible environmental forces through simulated granular matter. Motion and depth are revealed through a smartphone interface, exposing dynamic particle fields beneath the printed surface.

02  Stone Signal

A temporary digital monolith installed in remote landscapes, translating real-time wind data into a continuously evolving visual form. The work functions as a site-responsive signal structure, an abstract marker that makes invisible atmospheric movement perceptible through computational expression.

03  Expedition

A location-based series of digital field simulations exploring Nordic environments. Each work is generated from specific sites, translating terrain, climate and atmospheric data into computational visual systems.

04  Aurora Lens

A physical light artwork exploring captured atmospheric light within glass. A circular illuminated frame with internal LED illumination refracts through layered textured glass, creating shifting optical fields that respond to surrounding environments.
