VIKTORIA HALLENIUS

 

A young contemporary colorist! Victoria’s art arises from beauty’s strong appeal, the earth and the natural beauty.

Viktoria Hallenius, born in 1971 in Gothenburg, grew up in England where she studied at Chelsea College of Art, London. She later received her Master of Art at St Andrews University, Scotland. Viktoria is inspired by travelling around the world which can be seen by her choice of motifs. She has been well received with exhibitions, not only in Sweden, but also in countries such as Italy, Spain, France, England and the United States. Viktoria has a bright future according to many art aficionados and is expected to make a mark in the art world.

”Viktoria Hallenius paints with acrylic and oil. The compositions often entails wide panoramic landscapes with depth of vision. She wraps the landscapes in veils of mist with human figures near and far. Her paintings are independent and original. Her work is significantly different from traditional Nordic landscape painting, something that can be explained by her education in England. She also works as a illustrator and graphic artist. With light touch, she finds a way to reproduce human figures. In her graphics she express herself with the same composition and the peculiarity as in her large paintings. Viktoria has succeeded in finding a formula for the representation of the surrounding reality.”
