Shann Larsson
BIOGRAPHY
Shann is a mixed media artist and designer based in Hong Kong. Inspired by dualities present in nature, language and culture, her works often explore subconscious narratives that sit upon the fence of opposing ideas or emotions. Layer upon layer in fragmented forms, her use of line and color with their textural nuances create a push and pull within the work. Shann has resided in Hong Kong since1998. Prior to this, her homes have included Indonesia, Sweden and Germany, where she was born.
Shann’s works have been exhibited and published both locally and abroad. Her works have also been recognized by Red Dot, in areas of illustration and book design.
