Kavsjö, Stefan

Stefan Kavsjö paints the natural landscape in the moment of change. A kind of abstract impressionistic landscape that is not directly descriptive but concrete enough to experience the feeling of a natural landscape with its shifts. He works primarily in oil and masters layer painting, where layers upon layers of thin oil glazes and paint create visible depth and seductive shifts in light.

In Kullavik just south of Gothenburg, Stefan Kavsjö lives and works in his studio. Here next to the sea, the special light is a constant companion, whether it's a late summer evening or a midwinter day. The pursuit of the clouds across the sky and the ever-changing light is for Stefan the absolute strongest source of inspiration. Educated early at art school in Gothenburg, Stefan Kavsjö already had several successful exhibitions as a 23-year-old. But life took a different turn and he took a long break from painting, although creation has always followed Stefan in one form or another. Since a couple of years ago, he and the painting studio have been reunited with new energy. The living interior and exterior expanses carry an unimaginable source of inspiration that Stefan Kavsjö brings with him in the brushstrokes and the contrasting landscapes.
