Rasmus Karl Åke Lindberg (b. 1991) is a visual artist working primarily with acrylics and pastels.
His work explores different techniques and materials, focusing on texture and expression. Originally from Sweden, he has studied Fine Arts at Novia University of Applied Sciences in Finland and spent an exchange year at Stiftung Universität Hildesheim in Germany.
During the pandemic, Lindberg had the opportunity to exhibit his work in Germany, including two solo exhibitions, Bryophyta and Restricted Diaries, as well as the group exhibition The Art of Failure. In 2024, he was awarded an apprenticeship grant from the Swedish Cultural Foundation, allowing him to further develop his practice under the guidance of artists Jan Erik Andersson and Christoph Knitter.
Beyond his artistic work, Lindberg has a varied background, having worked in teaching, industrial settings, and even rock blasting. These experiences have shaped his perspective and approach to art. Currently, he continues to explore new ideas and refine his craft through exhibitions and collaborations.
