A video interview with Niklas Elmheed, the artist behind the distinctive gold and black paintings of Nobel Prize winners.
Swedish artist Niklas Elmehed is an anonymous figure. He lives every artist’s dream – as soon as the images he draws come out, they are viewed and shared by millions of people and media channels around the world.
Still, he’s not a household name. That may be changing, thanks to a tweet from the Nobel committee that said Elmheed is the artist behind the distinctive gold-and-black paintings, along with the annual announcement of Nobel laureates.
in this interview with The Hindu Weekend, the artist discusses his process, works with the committee, and more.
