Entranced by dreamy settings, Seehund’s figures are often shadowless, rarely on solid ground, as if on edge of reality and tie together magic and real with a note of tragedy.

The artist seeks to depict feelings rather than identities, by disrupting figurative boundaries with abstraction. Destruction plays a key expressionist role in his work.

Breaking expected shapes to build up frail beauty, through his compositions, the artist intimately shares relatable feelings of vulnerability, loneliness, evanescence, and hope.
