Helene Brox is an Oslo based illustrator, hand letterer and mural painter who has been brightening Norway’s capital since 2007. Born Helene Ryenbakken Brox, she grew up surrounded by west coast fjords and rainy city streets, an atmosphere that now feeds the gentle humor and quiet optimism that run through her images. After studying visual communication at Bergen Academy of Art and Design she moved east, trading coastal fog for tram bells and never looked back.

Her signature language pairs chunky hand drawn letterforms with flat, playful color blocks that recall mid century posters yet feel fresh and Nordic. Working primarily in Procreate, gouache and acrylic, she builds scenes of everyday wonder: a cluster of cats peering from apartment windows, two cyclists sharing an umbrella, chess pieces pausing mid game to admire a sunset. The compositions look simple, but subtle texture and precise alignment give each print a satisfying tactile punch.

Brox is also co founder of Heiaklubben, an illustration hub and gallery that champions local talent through group shows, art fairs and studio visits. Recent murals enliven schoolyards and co working spaces across Oslo, while limited screen prints released through Too Many Prints sell out within hours. Whether she is designing a city cycling map, painting a kindergarten facade or lettering a protest sign, Helene Brox approaches every surface with the same goal: to slow hurried gazes, spark small smiles and remind urban neighbors that creativity can turn ordinary streets into shared living rooms.

Evert Anton Steen is a young multidisciplinary creator from Tønsberg, Norway, who fuses digital design, printmaking and performance energy into a fresh visual voice. Born in the coastal city south of Oslo, he launched an independent clothing brand while still in his teens, translating hand drawn graphics onto limited apparel drops that quickly sold out online. That early entrepreneurial push revealed a knack for branding and storytelling, skills he later channelled into screen printed posters, stickers and zines that circulate across Europe.

Steen’s imagery pairs playful characters with subtle social commentary: cartoonish figures ride whales through cityscapes, or lounge inside floating bubbles that mirror smartphone screens. He builds these scenes through bold vector shapes, candy colour gradients and thick outlines reminiscent of skateboard decks and manga panels. Each composition starts as a loose sketch in Procreate, moves to Adobe Illustrator for crisp refinement, then hits a local print studio where he pulls small editions on recycled paper, often adding hand painted details or metallic ink so no two sheets are identical.

Beyond the studio Steen works as a professional stuntman, a job that feeds his art with motion, risk and behind the scenes camaraderie on Norwegian film sets. The physical discipline shows up in dynamic perspectives and freeze frame poses that suggest mid leap suspension. Recent exhibitions at Too Many Prints showcase works like “Langtidsparkering,” where abandoned cars sprout gardens, and “Gulefinkene,” a glowing yellow finch perched on a traffic cone, both prints selling out within days. Through every poster, tee or mural, Evert A. Steen invites viewers to find humour and hope tucked inside everyday urban chaos.
