When you grow up in the world's largest fjord, or perhaps the second largest actually, you learn to respect ponds, water, sea and ocean.

Krampe is a short comic about swimming. My mother always said that I should never swim alone, but how long does that rule apply? Now I'm 42, and my sea-wise in-laws laugh at me and my rules.

The comic is an unceremonious reflection on swimming and it won Gold for it's visual design in Visuelt 2025. The comic is printed on Risograf at Pamflett in Bergen. The first edition is printed by me, the artist, in a limited edition of 100 copies, signed and numbered. These are available at Tekstallmenningen in Bergen and Tronsmo in Oslo.
