Hij klassieke thema’s en iconografie om een eigen mythologie te creëren die zowel tragisch als komisch is. De kinderlijke onschuld van de beeldtaal contrasteert met de onheilspellende sfeer die de schilderijen oproepen. Het houterige personage in \u003ci\u003eFinding Paradise\u003c/i\u003e houdt het midden tussen cowboy, die de geïdealiseerd man symboliseert, en clown, die staat voor verborgen verdriet. De figuur wordt met een zwaard doorboort, terwijl vlinders op de achtergrond vrede en schoonheid suggereren. Op die manier balanceert het werk tussen grimmige wanhoop en groteske waanzin.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eViktor Mattsson wordt vertegenwoordigd door Newchild Gallery.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":5170,"name":"Viktor Mattsson","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
