Siri Berlin - Artist
"To live a creative life,
we must lose our fear of being wrong."
Siri Berlin (she/her) is a German artist from Berlin who lives in Linköping, Sweden, where she shares an atelier with her husband Kristian Sundin.
Siri holds a Master's degree in Philosophy, English, and German Literature and she is a trained systemic analytical coach and sex therapist.
Her main focus is drawing and painting from life, be it the human body or an urban landscape. Diversity in style and medium is characteristic of her work. ​
​
While ink and charcoal dominate in figure drawing, she explores watercolor and oils for plain air and landscape painting as well as for more personal, inner-world pieces. In addition to being a visual artist, Siri writes poems in German and English and hosts a sex positive podcast called ‘Sex&Art’.
​
When asked about what she loves about figure drawing, Siri says: "When I draw from life, I fall in love with everyBody. At the beginning of a session, the mind can be confused by beauty ideals or personal preferences, but the process of drawing a nude figure makes me realize the beauty in every human being."
