Jump for Joy, 2020

Sally Kindberg is a Swedish artist living and working in London, UK. She received both her BA and MFA from Goldsmith University of London.

In her work she focuses on painting and the exploration of high and low culture. She blends in elements about our culture and society that are both civilised and ridiculous thus creating comic-like imagery. Sally likes to apply humor as the means of exploring our uncanny emotions.
