"Huge wanted to come up with a style in mural painting that did not resemble anything created before so he invented the photorealistic helium balloon style. In short, he replaced the traditional graffiti letters with painted helium balloons and has developed a style that has become his hallmark." - Artist website: https://hugeart.se

'”Stairmaster” 2,7 x 2,3m commissioned to motivate people to use the stairs at the head quarters of Vasakronan (a real estate company) in Stockholm. Painted in my studio on 3 MDF-pieces. Mounted at location on the 3rd floor.' @andreasenglundart May 22, 2018

"Technique-wise, I’m drawn to the old masters—Anders Zorn’s my guy, his bold grip on light and shadow. But for ideas, it’s Banksy’s sly, subversive edge, flipping power on its head, or David LaChapelle’s staged, over-the-top worlds that mix the raw and dazzling.... Life’s messy and funny; I just paint it that way." 2025 interview https://culturalee.art/culturalee-in-conversation-with-andreas-englund/
⠀⠀⠀
'What was the inspiration behind the Life of the Superhero series?
I have always been inspired by the human body which led me to the world of greek classic sculpture. From there the ”modern” greek hero – the superhero originated. In my case I wanted to portray the human aspects – not being perfect and the superhero became the natural symbol to dramatize these flaws – since he is suposed to be more or less ”perfect”.
...
He is based on me and my father. He then became more personal to me and through him I can portray my own shortcomings.'

"I’ve just finished this wall at @vasakronanab curated by @strangefruit_curator :) It’s an indoor wall (270*420cm) in a pretty tight space. I took it as a great opportunity to try to challenge myself a little and not rely on the cans too much as well as letting the perfectionist stay home. Tried to go more loose and mostly use rollers and brushes. Leaving the mistakes in a little more Bob Ross-style :)" @linuslundin April 24, 2018

"Stairwell in the heart of the city painted by some great street art artists. Open for the public during regular working hours." https://streetartcities.com/cities/stockholm/markers/24010
⠀⠀⠀
"I grew up in a small village in Sweden. There wasn’t much to do there. Painting my first wall was more or less just something I did to get some excitement. I wasn’t into art or anything like that at the time. Later I got to know other writers from the area and they inspired me a lot. Even though it was a small town, the quality of the painters was really high. I got hooked and have been drawing and painting ever since, even though it hasn’t been on walls all the time.
...
I’m always watching stuff in everyday life though that inspires my art work. I’ve gotten lots of weird looks in the subway from staring at people’s faces for too long…" - 2016 interview https://streetartunitedstates.com/interview-yash/
