About The Artist

Louise Christensen, visual artist – Biography / artist statement. Louise Christensen Born in Denmark 1968. Lives and works in North Zealand, Denmark. I am a self-taught artist, has lived 10 years in Vienna and in Königstein im Taunus near Frankfurt am Main, where I started my work as a visual artist. Spring 2011 I chose to return to my home country Denmark, where I now live and work. The inspiration for my work comes to me from nature, reflections on life and dreams. I work mostly intuitively and the theme that concerns me the most, and is like a golden thread through my personal life, is the voltage and interaction between the earthly world and the heavenly world, with all that this implies . The materials I use are a mix of acrylic on canvas, natural materials such as flowers and plants, stone, sand, self-made art paper, my own photos, textiles, objects such as glasses, shoes, clothes, snakeskin - all that inspires me in my process. Trauma after a burning accident has made my life a living hell for several years, but I am slowly recovering and getting back to my creative world, which is a healing process in itself. I believe the trauma eventually will be able to bring me to new areas in my creativity and in my life. During recovery I have been blessed with invitations to exhibit my art works in international art locations throughout the world, among others Berlin, New York, Tokyo and London. The latest honour is an invitation to be a part of the permanent collection at European Art Museum, Denmark, founded by the world famous Danish artist and curator Leif Nielsen. I am very grateful – and getting back on track in my creative world with belief in the future.
