My name is Signe. I create illustrations and artworks where myth, history, and folklore intertwine. I am the visual storyteller of the unseen and the half-forgotten.

My work shows a quiet, suspended moment: inviting the viewer to linger, to find their own story, and to let their imagination wander wild and free.

​

Again and again I return to the land and stories of Northern Europe for inspiration. Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon folklore is my foundation, the building blocks for my work. These stark and untamed regions hold a profound and wild ancient magic. That duality—stillness and intensity existing side by side—runs through everything I create.

​

My visual language is found in moments of transition, where nothing is fixed or fully defined. I am most drawn to the liminal spaces like twilight and dusk where light and dark, life and death, human and nature dissolve into one another. Horses move through this realm as my guides and companions, they know how to navigate life by being in the moment.

​

Whether I’m illustrating picture books or developing my own body of work, I seek to create images that leave space for interpretation, for storytelling, for the viewer to step inside and explore.
