Lars Sandgren

Lars Sandgren was born in Umeå in the north of Sweden, in the beautiful landscape called Lappland, or Samiland. The nature there has had a great impact and has served as an inspiration for his work. Both parents teachers. The father was a painting artist as well, and has been a great source of inspiration throughout his painting career. He studied at the university of Umeå where got his Bachelor of arts exam.
Lars work is deeply rooted in the visual memories of his upbringing in Lapland, Sweden. He is drawn to the vast, shifting landscapes and the rhythmic changes of the seasons—where water, mountains, and forests are in constant transformation. These natural structures and patterns serve as the foundation for his paintings, which range from purely abstract expressions to more figurative interpretations.Beyond the landscape Lars explores the human condition from a psychological perspective. He creates fictional characters, men and women brought to life through a process of visual storytelling, giving voice to the silent narratives within us. Lars has
build a over 30 year career as an artist with regular gallery exhibitions mostly in Sweden but also in China.
