Einar grew up in rural Toten, on the countryside in a small

town called Raufoss. While his family life was safe and

harmonious, his outside surroundings was not. Many years

of systematic bullying created a skepticism and uncertainty

towards what his life could bring.

​

He started his creative path with a pencil in hand, and

discovered shelter - and a world of endless possibilities. His

passion for drawing laid the foundation for his artistic

growth and expression.

​

It was a few years later, at Einar Granum School of Art, that

he found the opportunity to develop artistically. Here, he

began to explore new aspects of himself and his artistry,

quickly realising that this was the path he wanted to pursue.

The architecture in his works represents something solid

and constant in life. Inside these forms, chaos exists,

stemming from a challenging past.

Einar experiments with

the emotions that arise when we are placed in the boxes and

frameworks that society demands us to stay in.

​

He creates a new brutalist and surreal landscape, where the

past and present merge into a colourful and expressive

universe.
