Hi! My name is Johannes Helgelin and I’m a Swedish Illustrator, design and animator working cross-disciplinary in the field of world building and visual communication.
With an obsession for the non-digital organic ink-line, I work in the pursuit of building visual concepts that lifts the individuality as well as the ugly and secret, constantly pushing illustration as a medium outside the realm of the norm.
I take on projects individually as well as in the form of my animation studio Hannes&Johannes.
The beauty lies in the divine coincidence of pointlessness.
