Looking for the Myth of Power
Welcome to the homepage of artist Maria Friberg!

Most of my work revolves around themes of human relations and the failure of social conventions. I have focused on masculinity and the contemporary man.
Stories about powerful, vulnerable, beautiful and insecure individuals. I have also used other symbols of power, like architectural elements, wild nature and beauty itself.
