nebulous nexus : works 1-6

Marko Svart is a Finnish/Swedish multidisciplinary artist and designer, based in Reykjavik since 2017.
His work range includes performance, conceptual art, installation, fashion design, film and music.
He is also the owner and designer of the fashion brand Svartbysvart.

Svart is often working with recurring themes of:
Expressionism, catharsis, psychoanalysis & cognitive dissonance, conflict ambivalence, Nordic melancholy, cultural exploration about artistry, as well as philosophies of life/death.

Art is inside the artist’s mind, and my expression should not be defined by rules or expectations.
I do of course come back to certain themes or techniques but when I start a project, I don’t want to think about it filtered through my “medium”.

I want my work to be unexpected and fluid, and i am refusing to sacrifice my being to find a “relatable” focus

For me, artistry is an existence and I believe in the importance of using art mainly for personal, internal exploration as a creator and human.”

Striving to use his broad range of skills and different Nordic homes, Svart creates a unique and personal form of art, constantly challenging himself and examining the relationship between art, the artist and the audience.
