Peter Stridsberg born 1994 in Gothenburg. Lives and works in Umeå, Sweden. He received his master's degree at the Umeå Academy of Fine Arts in 2019.
Over the years, in my professional role as a visual artist, I have worked mainly in photography and installation, where I have taken an interest in the importance of the landscape as a place and our architectural relationship to it. In recent years, I have started from the word scenery, which means both scenery and landscape, where I have created various meetings and windows from a directed perspective that made visible our contact with the landscape.
"Today in the studio I work with different projects in parallel where I partly work experimentally with different materials and techniques where I search to find new methods of expression and a dialogue that explores the landscape from an architectural perspective"
At the same time, I am constantly working towards new exhibitions where I work more thematically to highlight and shape from a collective spatial expression. The parallel processes are combined when I work on a large scale outdoors but also when I apply for various public artistic commissions.
