Collection: Lena Appel

The Painter Exploring Differences and Community

Lena Appel, raised in Norrahammar but now living in Nyköping, is an artist with a clear ambition – to highlight the fact that we are all unique and need different conditions to grow and develop into the individual people we are meant to be. Through her artworks, she strives to arouse thoughts and convey power and inspiration.

Lena Appel mainly works with mixed media, with a focus on paper and canvas. She consciously mixes different materials and lets her great interest in gardens and nature permeate her works. The result is a rich flora of differences and characters, where each painting creates a story of community and diversity.

With her artistry, Lena Appel explores the theme of differences and emphasizes the importance of embracing and appreciating the diversity that enriches our existence. Her works thus become not only artistic expressions but also an important reminder of our common journey towards embracing and understanding the uniqueness of each individual.
