About

Henrik Gjerstad (b. 1996) is a Norwegian artist based in Oslo. For as long as he can remember, Henrik has been invigorated by art and the aesthetically beautiful. He is specialising in the mediums of oil paint, acrylic and spray paint. He is known for his expressionist art, which often incorporates text and lyrics, as well as his abstract art which features organic shapes, deep textures and vivid colours. Street art and textures of urban environments form a core source of inspiration for Henrik, with many of his experiences and artistic interpretations developed during travels to various cities around the world. For Henrik, the process of producing art ignites a journey to a free place where anything and everything can happen.
