GOTHENBURG BASED ART DUO

ABOUT US

SPEAKERBREATHER
Adam Ward & Louise Hornberg

We are SPEAKERBREATHER, an art duo from Gothenburg, Sweden. The name we have given our artistic style is: deconstructed social surrealism.

By breaking down everyday life and reimagining it in an abstract surrealist manner, our work reflects the complexities of existence, the world around us, and the ideas that flow through and beyond us. Our pieces invite diverse interpretations, merging precise geometric structures with chaotic, organic forms.

A key part of our approach is the social aspect of our art. We emphasize collaboration and engage the public through unconventional means, creating experiences that challenge norms and invite deeper interaction.

Both of us have been deeply involved in the local art and music scenes for our entire lives. Together and individually, we’ve exhibited our work in numerous shows, completed custom commissions, and organized art exhibitions and music events.

Louise is a trained art teacher, decorator and studied at the Gothenburg School of Art. Adam is a mechanical engineer, electrician, and 3D artist. Our art draws from this diverse pool of skills and experiences, creating a dynamic synergy in our collaboration.

Our contrasting cultural roots—Adam from California and Louise from northern Sweden—infuse our work with a rich interplay of perspectives, highlighting the tension and harmony that define our creative process.
