Flat Octopus had a studio visit with the Swedish painter Ebba Jordelius in her atelier at Elektravรคgen in Vรคstberga. The studio was filled with a special cool-warm winter light and enhanced the unique pastel shaded tones seen in Jordelius works. Working with oil on canvas, her paintings range from landscapes to depicting still and stiff figures; both nature and humans seem to have been paused in the moment or cast under a spell. A feeling of solitude and melancholy, but at the same time soothing can be found in most of her works.

We exhibited Jordelius at two of our Paintersโ€™ Salons, at Candyland in 2021 and Molekyl gallery last year.

Ebba Jordelius is a painter educated at the Gerlesborg School of Fine Art in Bohuslรคn and Konstfack. Also a trained biologist who works with climate issues. She has taken the course Performative criticism at the Royal Institute of Arts and collaborated with poets, composers and others.
