Therese Livonne is a visual artist born and based in the south of Sweden. She has a background in textiles and fashion but decided after several years to leave and is currently pursuing a B.A. in Painting at the University for the Creative Arts.
Therese has a passion for portraiture, especially dark emotional portraits. In her highly autobiographical work, she explores the human condition and confronts personal and emotional experiences of mental illness, trauma, and memories. These themes are explored through a range of mediums, often combining painting, drawing, and fiber in different ways. She enjoys experimenting with a variety of surfaces such as metal, plastic, and cloth. Keeping an experimental and investigative approach is an essential part of her practice.
Stepping out of her art studio, Therese loves spending time with her two young daughters, husband, and two dogs. She loves traveling with her family, exploring nature, learning about exciting cultures, and meeting new people. When not traveling, spending time with her family in the woods or on the beach makes her life great!
Therese´s work has been shown in galleries and group exhibitions all around Sweden. Most recently, her work was chosen for the juried exhibition at Romele Konsthall in Sweden and selected for the 2021 SICK! Magazine Wall Calendar.
