The starting point for this painting is, perhaps surprisingly, a waterscape: Venice, with its canals, bridges and that very particular shimmer and light.
I visited Venice last summer and found myself drawn to its less touristy parts, wandering through almost deserted squares, coming across the occasional tree offering shade. I was struck by the music, the layers of history and, perhaps most of all, by the light created by all that water, constantly reflecting and shifting.
Somewhere in all of that, Confetti began

Welcome to a world of nature, inner landscapes and glimmers.
Nina Johansson, Sweden, call herself a freeride painter; painting the way she skiis, with curiosity, presence and and reading and feeling the terrain rather than follow a fixed route. She is based ioutside Stockholm in the archipelago.
Her layered painting process move between abstraction and recognition, drawing on mountains, forests, water and organic forms as both outer and inner landscapes. Sometimes Mademoiselle Montagne shows up.
Her work embraces both/and rather than either/or: freedom and belonging, stillness and movement, strength and vulnerability, the wild and the grounded. She explores what we carry, what we let go of and what we pass on, with a deep love of nature and a wish to protect its wonder for generations to come.
And then there are the glimmers: those fleeting flashes of awe that sharpen our sense of being alive. Ultimately, her work is about the art of living.
Mockups/interior made by Nina
