Selected editorial illustrations, spring/ summer 2026
illustrations for Polistidningen, Sweden's police professional magazine, accompanying an investigative piece on how the national police force is gaming its own statistics to hit government targets for visible, uniformed officers on the street.
The story needed images that could carry the contradiction clearly: numbers that are technically correct but fundamentally misleading. A tally that stretches to make the count. A desk job dressed up as patrol work. A uniform with nobody inside.
Illustration for Skolledaren - Sweden's magazine for leaders within the educational system (principals/ headmasters, etc). About the importance of downtime and reset in order to function as a leader.
Illustration for Tidningen Kollega. Kollega is the membership magazine of Unionen, the Swedish union for private-sector white-collar workers. This summer 2026 feature takes on a phenomenon called semesterstress, a word that may not exist outside Swedish; Sweden has some of the longest holidays anywhere, yet the pressure to make them perfect turns rest into one more thing to get right.
A cyclist pauses by a lake while the season's props drift overhead just out of reach: a beach ball, a cold beer, a melting popsicle, a half-finished renovation, an unsent postcard. The good life as a to-do list.
Full-page opener, an animated version for social, and two spot illustrations.
Editorial illustration for Folkuniversitetet's magazine. The feature makes the case for fiction as a teaching tool, not as a fix for the so-called reading crisis but as a way to build empathy, language and critical thinking. Swedish universities are bringing novels into courses far beyond the humanities, from history and psychology to medical training, where reading and discussing fiction has been shown to sharpen how students understand other people.
