About The Artist

 

 

 

Vidar is an interdisciplinary artist based in Norway who graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in Scotland.

In early 2020, after living in Miami for 15 years, Vidar turned his passion for art into a full-time profession.

Previously, he worked as a commercial artist in visual communications for various demographic markets and global brands. His roles included Art Director, Creative Director, Marketing Director, and Vice President.

Alongside his professional career, Vidar worked periodically with Pushwagner (Terje Brofos) from 1997 to 2010, an important contemporary Norwegian artist during the early stages of his rise to fame.

Working alongside Pushwagner provided Vidar with a deep understanding of various art techniques, color usage, and large-scale printing.

Today Vidar combines his reservoir of techniques and knowledge in his art projects.
