Cecilia Enberg is an artist based in Stockholm, Sweden. She holds a B.Sc in Multimedia and 2014/2015 she took a postgraduate course at the Royal Institute of Art with a printmaking project. The last years Cecilia also been part of r a k e t a, who is running interdisciplinary, collaborative projects and experiments within art, design, architecture and digital media.Cecilia is represented in several county councils and municipalities in Sweden.

Cecilia is interested in the junction between new technology and traditional craftsmanship, and she works in various media, such as printmaking, needlework, and photography. Another format close to Cecilia’s heart is the Artists’ book – both as a container for words and/or images, and as a physical object.

Cecilia explores the similarities between recurring everyday events and decorative patterns: “The things we do everyday create patterns in our lives. We seem to have a need to organize and structure our reality, as an attempt to make sense of it. Patterns give us meaning. To understand is to see patterns!”
