​
Soren Thielemann, aka Sorenski, is a Danish-born artist living in California, USA. With a career as an art director and graphic designer in the advertising industry, he uses his art to tell stories that are based on conceptual ideas that tell abstract stories through layers of symbolism. The themes are often influenced by current social and political affairs, social and human injustice, corporate greed, the environment, and religion.
His abstract and often whimsical styles and shapes are inspired by his childhood passion for cartoons. It’s also a rebellious contrast to the linear and mathematical shapes you find in typography and graphic design, yet there’s a desire to balance the subject on the canvas and achieve some symmetry.
​
His work has been featured in shows and galleries in Denmark and the United States, as well as commissioned work in public areas and privately.
​
He works in ink, oil, acrylic, and gouache on a variety of surfaces, including murals.
