Artist Crush: Mette Helena Rasmussen

Monday, January 24, 2011 · 6 Comments

Mette Helena Rasmussen is a student at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School. I first saw her work in the home of Architect Sofie Simone via automatism. I am really drawn to Rasmussen’s figurative work which has a folksy flatness and a playful approach with regards to form and pattern.

    Did you know that she’s an interior stylist as well? (And shop owner?) She makes the most fab articles for especially Boligliv. My fave interior mag.
