martin johansson

Martin is an artist originally from the south of Sweden, currently living and working in Stockholm. His work is primarily figurative oil paintings with an abstract touch.


Recently he has been experimenting with a fractured approach of the human body, deconstructing it and exposing what lies beneath. This "anatomie" collection is breaking new ground in how Martin express himself, and more of these paintings are coming.

Up until a few years ago Martin worked as an illustrator and digital product designer. First through agencies, then as a freelancer and eventually as a founder and senior designer for the design studio Common Ground. During this time art was a side project.
