We capture the buzzy Stockholm-based artist in her element: bringing a one-of-a-kind work to life, with our camera lens as her canvas
While Scandinavian creatives are known for their strong ties with nature, Stockholm-based artist Madelen Möllard finds her muse in flowers specifically. “They have always held a special meaning to me,” Möllard says in Vogue Scandinavia's April-May issue. “When I found the poppy I kind of found who I was as an artist. I couldn’t stop painting them again and again.”
Poppies may be headlining Möllard’s career, but flowers as a whole have followed her throughout life. “My mum grew up in a flower-rich home with lots of garden flowers and forest flowers. My grandfather always had such beautiful flower beds and there were always wild flower bouquets indoors,” says Möllard.
