NIKLAS DAHLQVIST
Born 1992
"I’m an intermedia artist from Stockholm. I primarily work with animation, 3D modelling and audio art. In my works, I often start with artistic reconstructions in order to investigate and describe urban transformation processes. Drawing is a very central aspect of my work. No matter whether I’m working with music, 3D or animated film, I always start with drawing in the form of graphic scores or sketches. In other words, my works always begin with drawing and then develop into other forms of expression. When I work with animated film, drawing is also often the end-product. This is the medium where drawing is most prominent for those who experience the work.
For me, drawing is a quick and direct way of formulating ideas and intentions, and is usually the simplest way to define a form for my works. I also believe that my starting point in drawing – regardless of the medium – helps to give works a cohesive character."
