As a professional artist that delves to go beyond the traditional to create her own singular form of expression, Britt-Marie Tidemand has cultivated a presence that is to be admired, respected, and studied. From start to finish, she has taken her artistry to new heights and shared it internationally in her own way, and on her own terms. In a exclusive interview in NY-ArtNews 2021 in New York, Tidemand gets introspective as she shares her perspectives on how her background has shaped her artistic spirit, how her creative process is shaped, the role of artists in society, the transformative experiences she has gone through, and much more.

“The Land of Silence” is an immersive journey into uncharted territories of contemporary art, where the boundaries between expression and introspection blur, inviting viewers to explore the profound resonance of silence. This exhibition is a poignant exploration of the power and depth found in the absence of sound, a realm where visual language and artistic interpretation convergen
In a world inundated with noise, propaganda, and constant chatter, “The Land of Silence” becomes a sanctuary, an oasis for contemplation and reflection. Through various mediums and artistic perspectives, the artists delve into the vast spectrum of silence, illuminating its nuanced facets and evoking a broad range of emotions.

“There is a dark sensual fascination to Britt-Marie Tidemand’s paintings” also in the ones she presents at M.A.D.S. Art Gallery during the EMERGING Art exhibition.
Similar in their colors and in the lines that compose the subjects, the three scenes are the representation of the Swedish artist’s artistic essence.
Each piece shows a dreamland atmosphere in which throughout the colorful background some naked bodies easily fluctuate. Softer is the giving of the lines composing the characters, opposed to the ones of the dark and deep brushes creating the background. ‘Over my Bed’; ‘Hold Me’ and ‘Hanging Around’ refigure the artist’s emotions and feelings to which she wants the viewers to look at.
The faces of the main characters of the scenes seem to be sad and grotesque absorbed in their feelings and emotions. Looking attentively at the bodies is it possible to enter the scene, to feel and hear the same sentiments. The sinuousness of the curves into the ‘sea of fire’ in which they lay, is something the artist has created in order to permit the viewers to see the positive also into the difficulties of life.
Following The National Trust's Placrylic-based art installation in Spring 2022, collectors, industry leaders, and artists will gather to see 40 new historic paintings created with Placrylic, a sustainable plant medium for artists invented by English painter and chemist Hana in 2020. Placrylic was designed to address the climate and health concerns that modern artists face.
British Vogue’s Sustainability Editor, Dana Thomas, and Veronica Sekules, owner of the only sustainable gallery in the world, Groundwork Gallery, will sit for live speedy Placrylic paint portraits on the day. The portraits will be created by English Placrylic artist Brad Kenny, whose collectors include Tom Jones.
Beyond 60x60 cm Placrylic Paint, working from a colour palette: blue, yellow, green and black.
Placrylic™ is a patented sustainable plant paint that behaves like traditional oil paint, allowing artists to work in layers. However, unlike some oil paints, such as titanium-white paint—which negatively impacts ocean chemistry when washed down the drain—Placrylic is 100% titanium-free, marine-friendly, and safe for artists to use.

The Placrylic Art Fair will be held on November 16, 2022, at York's Middlethorpe Hall. Thirty highly regarded painters from twelve nations have employed Placrylic to create these sustainable plant paintings.
In keeping with the art fair’s theme of pandemics and migration, the artists used a limited palette of Placrylic colours: eco black, eco blue, eco yellow, and eco green. Paintings to be unveiled at the fair include a portrait of Damien Hirst burning his paintings, a painting of smallpox vaccine advocate Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, and other migration-themed works of art.

There is a dark sensual fascination to Britt-Marie Tidemand’s paintings. The Swedish artist portrays the emotions buried deep within our psyche with fearless intensity. Grotesque faces emerge from a pitch black background, their mouths locked in an agonizing grimace; beautiful longilineal figures stand at the center of the canvas, looking back at us enigmatically, as if coming from a dream; twisted bodies float upside down in a sea of fire. The palette is warm: reds, oranges, yellows accompanied by shades of gold, chocolate, and black. The texture is buttery and soft, as conveyed by oil paint, either alone or mixed with sand from the shores of Gothenburg. Through her work Tidemand wants us to feel, hear, and see at all costs. Even if this means dragging us into the flames, blasting our ears with cries of agony, or dazzling our eyes with beauty. Tidemand has exhibited widely in Scandinavia as well as in Italy and New York.
Her art was on permanent display at Queen Silvia Children’s Hospital in Gothenburg, Sweden, and appeared on the cover of Queen Silvia Children’s Hospital’s 2009 and 2010 annual reports. Tidemand holds an MBA and a degree in Fashion Design. Alongside painting, she exercises her left brain cells as the CFO of a medical company.
What is "good" art?
The art world often defines and categorizes what is and isn’t art, but the real question we ask ourselves is often, "Is this good art?" My art doesn’t need to be a platform for debate or provoke a specific thought. Instead, it’s an invitation—a doorway into a world where each viewer can create their own experience.
Bring the magic home with unique, high-quality paintings and prints.
