Born in Ununge, Sweden, Arterium is a visual artist based in Australia and spends the larger parts of the year travelling and finding inspiration abroad. As an experienced and dynamic photographer and cinematographer, Arterium’s work captures and distills the unique beauty of his subjects. He is well known for his highly-creative videos and images in the music and fashion industries. On the live music scene, he has filmed and photographed at events such as Burning Man, Woodford, Uplift, Bali Spirit Fest and Byron Bay Blues Festival, working with artists such as John Legend, Grace Jones, BB King, Ben Harper, The Cat Empire, Xavier Rudd and Medicine for the People. In fashion, his experience includes collaboration with some of Australia’s leading photographers, including three-time AIPP Fashion Photographer of the Year Peter Coulson. Constantly evolving as an artist through many different mediums, Arterium is currently exploring music and hopes to share some of that by the end of 2015.
Notes from the Artist Capturing truth and beauty is my passion. I am blessed to gravitate toward strong, self-respecting subjects who radiate the kind of inner strength and magic that can only be achieved through living in harmony with Spirit and Nature. My approach is always intuitive and co-creative, which creates a safe space to allow the Soul's magic qualities to effortlessly guide the direction of the shoot. Each new day I strive to create more powerful work and I am deeply grateful to be doing what I love.
