Welcome to Catching the Comet’s Tail, a series of interviews with writers, artists and musicians discussing creativity and their creative process. This week, I spoke to Swedish contemporary artist Ylva Kunze during her first London show, Artist in Residence. Her canvases, informed by the woods and lakes of her childhood in SmÃ¥land, are deeply affecting, filled with kinetic fervour. It was no surprise to me to discover that her name, Ylva, means ‘she-wolf’ in Swedish.
