Jockum Nordström

Jockum Nordström is a swedish artist who is best known for his collages, drawings and paintings as well.


This drawing probably depicts one of scenarios of a horrible movie making process. It is easy to see a black fuzzy claw is reaching toward a woman, which terrifies her. There is a chimp-like man standing outside the door, wants to get access to her. Perhaps there is a third character-- the figure who has an octopus head. There are two things that confuse me. First, why are these people and objects all covered in blue while the white floor still exists between the stage and them? Second, why are these colors inside the door all vivid whereas these things outside the door consist of black and white only?



The drawing illustrates the scenario of hunting at an ancient age, possibly. It seems that the man standing above is calling on his hound to make preparation for a hunting. Another man holding a shaft, is about to stab a deer near by. Athough the drawing is a plain type without too many decorations, the whole one presents me a natural sense.



It is likely that this picture shows the situation inside an office. The very dark frames of these chairs enable these things to stand out, which is a sort of three dimension. Another thing I like is the colour of these desks. It is so natural that I may regard these desks as a part of a picure which is in a less hd form. However, I am not fond of the background much compared with the things I have mentioned before. Because it is so vague that I cannot exactly tell where the light is from.
