Wahlstrom is a 5th generation Swedish artist who began his artistic career in music and transitioned to painting in 1998. His art continuously looks to critique and re-frame society. Wahlstrom considers his work “Nordic Darkness,” delving into themes of both anxiety and joy. The pieces on display were created in 2023 as comments on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Swedish politics, family life, and more.
