SARA VICTORIA SANDBERG | “What if?”

“Being an artist means for me bringing one’s artistic vision into everyday life. It means harnessing the moments of inspiration and creativity but also trying to embrace all aspects of the process when it means adversity and hard work. With my art, I would like the viewer to be carried away into another world and encouraged to create and shape his or her individual story.
I hope my art provides a moment of respite for the viewer and perhaps inspires the thought, “What if?”.

SARA VICTORIA SANDBERG

Sara Victoria Sandberg is a photo composite artist based in Stockholm. To go beyond the boundaries of the real world and to create imaginative scenes has always been her wish. Her digital technologies combined with her own photography and vision enable Sara to create artwork full of imagination, beauty, and mystery.

“I am greatly inspired by the beauty, harmony, and mystery of the world we live in. I am drawn to beautiful and dramatic skies, open landscapes, and nature scenes. I am inspired by animals and fascinating objects that could feature well in a composite and shape the story and atmosphere of an image.”

​
The practice of drawing and watercolors throughout the years are skills that have served to shape her painterly thinking and translate it into the digital medium.
Sara has developed a personal style in her work where she combines photography and digital painting with her artistic vision.
She works with light and shadow to carefully mold and craft the scene she visualizes into a finished piece adopting a combination of photo-realism and painterly style.
The creation of mood and atmosphere is a recurring theme. Animals are often used as
a vehicle to take the story forward.
