Casper Jarnstedt

Casper Jarnstedt (b. 1995)
I grew up in Stockholm and since 2024 I have been based in Norrköping. My artistic expression is rooted in visual thinking, where images replace words. Unlike many others, I lack an inner narrative voice, something I only recently realized is unusual.

I have ADHD and have struggled with focus throughout my life. Painting, however, places me in a state of hyperfocus where I become fully absorbed in the process. My works are depictions of my thoughts and emotions, a way to visualize what would otherwise remain wordless.

I am entirely self-taught and view my visual thinking as a strength. It allows me to convey a directness and presence in my paintings that words could never fully capture.
