CAROLINA KRUPINSKA
As a traveler aficionado Krupinska draws from a mix of global influences and explores the adventure and freedom in her artistic work. She is a curious and creative soul who breath world-wide cultures and constantly let them inspire her work and creative thinking.
Growing up amongst a family of renowned architects, Carolina was brought up as an aesthetic dreamer. As a young girl, she early developed a passion for design, drawing and photography.
Soon after graduating from high school she jumped on the first flight to London and kicked in the doors at famous St. Martin’s College of Art & Design, to study graphic design and magazine production. Upon return to Sweden and more studying, she was drawn to Warszaw to live and connect with her background and Polish heritage.
Since her professional debut a few years back she has worked with clients such as Helly Hansen, Lexus, Bang & Olufsen and Ramlösa and more.
Her simplistic, yet emotional work leaves an imprint long after laying your eyes upon them. Above a series of minimalist illustrations that clearly demonstrate Krupinska’s talent in minimalist art and playful expressions.

A few weeks ago I had coffee with Carolina Krupinska at Bakeri, a cute coffe place at Whyte Avenue in Williamsburg to discuss her artistic influences and expressions. During our conversation Krupinska described the importance of New York’s vibrant atmosphere had to her artistic work. Living in New York really helped me grew as an artist, mostly because of all the resources and creative outlets available for artists, but also for the inspirations I manage to find in every corner of the city, Krupinska explains. After living in New York for 3 years she truly established herself in both her fields; graphic design and art. And she has her social skills to thank for a huge network of creative spirits in New York.
We also got into an inspiring discussion about our favorites from the Swedish arts and culture scene.
