Commitment to the bold expression.
Christoffer Elings-Pers
“Self-taught. Lives in Stockholm and Dalarna, Sweden.
Elings-Pers' dynamic informalism is placed between expressionism and avant-garde graffiti.
His starting point is a spontaneous way of working with a strong concentration on performative painting, which is characterised by a impasto painting technique and the use of spray paint and acrylic.
By often using chrome colors to depict the light that characterises Dalarna, the scenic combination of forest and lakes and especially the transition between day and night, Elings-Pers can be described as one of the leading figures of Dala futurism in Sweden.
Elings-Pers began as a twelve-year-old to express himself under the pseudonym "RAKS". He created minimal electronic music between 2014-2019, was involved in the development of the electronic record label Taiga Riviera and was the initiator of the artist collective "Heartfull Org", San Francisco.”
