atle østrem
Atle Østrem is an artist from Stavanger, Norway. Østrem’s work often explores the crossing point where beauty meets ugly, combining the best of both worlds. Suprimitive, gourmet garbage and beaugliful are just some of the fancy phrases used to describe his style.
“The iconic characters are both playful and dark. childlike and thought provoking. They inhabit an interior world and capture those often fleeting elements of daily life and emotion, that once we shine a spotlight on them, have the power to truly show us what it means to be human.”
Atle Østrem does not consider himself a street artist, nor a fine artist, but something in between. Something beauglyful.
