Caroline Lindqvist

Eco-Conscious Sculptor & Textured Wall Art

About Me

I’m Caroline Lindqvist [lind-kvist], a sculptor from the south of Sweden, now based in South London.

My work starts from curiosity—usually about a shape, a surface, or something that feels slightly alive. I don’t begin with a fixed idea. I make, adjust and follow what feels interesting until a form starts to take on a presence of its own.

I’m drawn to forms that feel familiar but not entirely recognisable. Many of the pieces end up looking like small creatures or masks, even though they’re not taken from a single reference. Over time, the work has started to feel like it belongs in a kind of imagined natural space, somewhere between the physical world and something more internal.

Some of the work is shaped by personal experience, particularly around trying to find a sense of freedom within yourself. It’s not something I set out to explain directly, but it often finds its way into the forms.

Sustainability in Art

I create contemporary wall sculptures using reclaimed cardboard and paper, building up surfaces through layering, texture and repetition. The materials play a big role in how the work develops, they’re not just a choice, but part of the process.

Sustainability is at the core of my practice. Working with discarded materials gives the work its character and direction. I’m also starting to bring in more natural materials alongside the paper and cardboard, allowing the work to develop in new ways over time.
