“Casper Johansson’s art (painting, sculpture, print) is an ongoing exploration of man and her inner and outer worlds and constant creation. His art touches on difficult themes – but is not difficult to access. The expression is innovative, surprising, sometimes provocative, and more and more beautiful. Never stand still. Stylistically, one can note an often labor-intensive and detailed process. Material, shape, size does not provide a framework for Casper’s works, which can be seen to take the place, and the form, the – and the theme – requires”.
