Artist bio:

Ellen Jakobsson is a Swedish artist based in Stockholm, whose practice moves seamlessly between painting, textiles, and drawing. A graduate of Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design, her work dwells in the subtle space where landscape and emotion quietly converge.

Working primarily in oil and gouache, Jakobsson composes intimate, atmospheric works that navigate themes of memory, recognition, and longing. Often painted en plein air, her motifs are shaped by the fleeting qualities of nature—shifting light, weather, and season. The result is a body of work imbued with stillness and quiet intensity, inviting the viewer into a contemplative pause.
