Helena Blomqvist's poetic artwork

"The Last Giant Octopus"

Swedish artist and photographer Helena Blomqvist's artwork is mesmerizing. She brings you into a fantastic world where sadness, loneliness, hopelessness and the fear that something terrible is going to happen are always present, but her images are so beautiful and poetic that I can't feel completely depressed while looking at them!

"Helena Blomqvist’s images look like scenes from a dark fairytale. The complex characters she depicts playfully border on your imagination, while the dreamlike, mysterious sceneries capture you full attention. Blomqvist’s art contains a touch of philosophical reflection, with topics of death and sadness clearly evident. At the same time, there is a sly sense of humor and irony to the way she places her quirky characters in their dark, misty surroundings. With the use of several props and models, and only a last touch of digital manipulation, Blomqvist is able to create a unique world where reality and fiction melt together seamlessly." GUP
