GSZON
Göran Sveningzon (sign. GSZON). Born in 1964 in Källeryd parish, Sweden.
His interest in the abstract developed early during basic art education in the 80s and continued through his theoretical orientation in art and visual studies. His painting also has historical references in the Byzantine world of color that he found in the mosaics of Ravenna. Something that came to influence his public decorations during the 90s.
After several years in the graphic industry, he resumed his art studies and in 2015 commenced the pictoral theme Lyrical Fields, a painting characterized by multiple surface layers, color fields and sign-like graphics. Since 2017, he has also worked with music through the Lyrotron concept.
His bachelor's degree in 2020 has involved deepening of both idea production and craftsmanship, in continued interaction with the personally intuitive.
