Bricolaged Contemporary Materials
by Jonatan Nilsson, Sweden

 

Revealing sculptural opportunities from quotidien and contemporary materials, Stockholm-based artist Jonatan creates functional fantasies that are a unique reflection of our time.

Drawn to bold and universal symbols, the artist often builds work around an iconic image, elevating it with scale and simple color palettes in the manner of pop and postmodern art. His work is grounded by a practiced appearance of spontaneity and irreverence well suited to a world saturated in emojis and effortless digital doodles.
