The common denominator for Sebastian Larsmo’s art is an interest in stories. His works deal with how memories, dreams, hopes and fears clings to places and change them. Through sturdy techniques such as drawing, drypoint engraving and silk screen, he seeks to capture brittle and elusive moods.
Sebastian Larsmo (b. 1989) graduated from Konstfack in 2017. He has received several awards, such as Getfotsfonden, the Ann-Margret Lindell Graphics Scholarship and the Karlskoga Konsthall Scholarship in Memory of Alfred Nobel.
