Anders Karls
I am a freelancing scenographer and costume designer, with roots in rural Pohjanmaa. I aim to bring positivity, sensibility, and pragmatism to the process; and challenging solutions to the stage. I believe that great things can only be sustainably achieved with a good plan and a good team, in a positive work environment.
I graduated with a masters degree in design for the performing arts from Aalto university in 2018, but I have done work in professional theatres since 2012. Since then I have worked with both musicals, drama, and plays for children. I can almost say that my speciality is touring productions, repertoire theatre, and practical sets for challenging stages – Oh, how I long to design something messy!
I can never be satisfied doing just one thing. Diversity gives me inspiration and makes me a better theatre professional. During the summer I act on stage, and at the moment I try to be a playwright; maybe one day I also get the opportunity to direct. Before I was a designer I studied physics, before I was a nerd I wanted to be a priest. Now I am an artist and part time farmer – All experiences are material for the stage!
