Visual Artist
From the work "100 and One Genders," where participants defined their experience of femininity and masculinity on a 0–100 numerical scale.
As an artist, I have primarily focused on the subjects of sex/gender and sexuality.
Through my project "On The Battlefield Between Sexes," I have sought a way to define gender that would reconcile the conflicting views of natural science and social science gender studies. My goal is also to demonstrate that sex/gender-unequal laws can be challenged with scientific arguments.
The accompanying image is from the work "100 and One Sex-Gender Variations," where participants define their own experience of femininity and masculinity playfully on a 0–100 scale. I wanted to show how few people define themselves as 100% female or male.
My aim is to also redefine sexuality.
Traditional definitions of sexuality (hetero, homo, lesbian) are not sustainable in the light of current biological knowledge, as gender is seen in biology as a spectrum rather than boxes.
I define sexuality not based on boxes but rather as a fetish—interest in, for example, masculinity, femininity, or different body parts. This allows for a more precise description of sexuality than what vague gender-box-focused expressions can define.

Photographer

As a photographer, I offer portrait and event photography services.
I have particularly focused on portrait photography. I am interested in nude, boudoir, and fetish-themed portraits, as they relate to the themes I explore as an artist.
I have also studied art therapy, which influences my approach to photography. I believe that photography can reveal beautiful aspects of oneself that are hard to see just by looking in the mirror.
I also offer event photography. I have photographed several sports competitions, for example.
I occasionally also shoot other subjects, such as landscapes.
Art Consultant

As an art consultant, I offer design and production services for visual art pieces.
I produce works as wall paintings, print products (2D and 3D prints), and digital works.
Artistic works can create comfort and style both indoors and in the surrounding environment.
As an art consultant, I also offer guidance in artistic exercises that support creativity and well-being.
I have developed artistic exercises suitable for individual work, group guidance, and coaching.
The exercises are suitable for supporting motivation, strengthening self-esteem, processing emotions, and building relationships.
I offer creativity-supporting exercises to work communities, which can increase productivity and thus business profitability.
