Rune Christensen on His Paintings, Life, Settling Down & More

Rubén Palma , Overstandard, June 17, 2023

Rune Christensen (b. 1980), is a Danish artist, who’s work is deeply influenced by the dynamic experience of existence: the perpetual motion that leads to meaningful encounters between individuals, cultures, and societies, ultimately impacting all those involved. Driven by an insatiable wanderlust, Christensen creates his art while on his travels. His distinctive artistic expression is derived from a medley of impressions gathered from our diverse world. Within Christensen’s pieces, one finds an overwhelmingly vibrant fusion of scents, colors, gazes, and people—an amalgamation that reflects the richness of his life. Having showcased his work in numerous locations such as Denmark, Beirut, Sydney, London, and Almaty in Kazakhstan, his art transcends borders, much like the artist himself.
