Biography
Peter Westman Was born -65 in Gothenburg Sweden. He got a MFA in sculptor at Konstfack Stockholm -92. In present time Peter lives and work in both Sweden and Greece. Peter has always been working in a conceptual tradition, with many different materials and technics all depending on the conceptual ideas. The fundaments of almost all his ideas are in simple terms coming from basic musings about what we are and the meaning of it all. Often he is looking for expressions, which speaks of contradictory feelings and the answers that never will come. In some works people are involved by their actions, like in the long-term project ”love letters” where Peter is meeting people worldwide and ask them to wright a love letter to a stranger that Peter will meet along is way. All letters are made anonym and the outcome is to spread love among people. The latest work is part of another long-term project started more than ten years ago and has the idea from an abstract or untold Odyssey, with a lonely astronaut on a journey.
