About Micke Lindebergh

Micke's confident hand and unapologetic choice of chromatically lush material’s, such as Posca pen’s, bright acrylics and riso inks, reward his audience with a visually delightful series of hand-generated arrangements. His playful compositions make use of balance, colour & contrast to showcase his masterful embrace of the primary palette. The bright and snappy works on exhibit recall his most prominent influences - Japanese comics, Scandinavian design and the balmy Sydney summertime.

Micke studied illustration at The Camberwell College of Art in London. After which, he spent some years living in London & around Europe, before finally landing in Sydney. Over the course of his travels his work changed from illustrations of monsters and animals to the more abstract and playful shapes and, flowers he is now known for. Micke wasted no time submerging himself in the local Sydney scene and is now a proud member of risograph print experts Pinch Press.

Blommor i närbild

  • 2022

‘Blommor I närbild’

A big part of my practice is to find solace. Creating bright colourful compositions of flowers is a way for me to meditate.

I’m borrowing inspiration from wallpapers and interior I remember from growing up in Stockholm in the 80s mixed with a love for retro design and pop art.

Last year I stumbled on a 60s Ikebana book of bright high contrast colour photos of simple and well balanced flower-arrangements.

It inspired me to look into the concept of Ikebana, loosely translates to living flowers.

As a result I started a series of paintings ‘Blommor I närbild’ (Flower close-ups).
