After growing up behind the Iron Curtain and later immigrating to the Free World, Madlén Hjelmroth gained a sense of perspective on human conditions, realising that all humans are born the same and that only circumstances and environment set the frames. Her inborn curiosity drives her to ask the question "Why?" and to look beyond the obvious and go deeper into people's lives. She expresses humanity's common ground by telling stories about people and the places they inhabit. Available for commissions & assignments. "A life without a dream or passion is not a life."
