About


Hello, my name is Samuel Sander. I'm a painter/artist working in Stockholm, Sweden. I'm currently at a studio space in West Hill industrial area called The Turbine  together with 24 other artists. My artistic base is in painting but lately I have also been exploring sculpting and printmaking. I have done public commissioned work and exhibitions in various place. Most of my work is at the existential intersection of art, faith and science. I try to visually narrate stories true to my life, yet seeking to explore whats beyond the seeing. To put it in Walter Brueggemans words "art is to articulate a world other than the one we take for granted"
