Kamiwaza means “godlike”. It is the destination in the pursuit of excellence where we don’t hold ourselves back in hesitation or self-doubt. Where we are fully present.

Personal brands are about putting on a myth or persona you want to represent, something you aspire to be capable of. It can also be about expressing something real from within. Making an identity with impact is my mission with these prints.

15% of each purchase will go to restore the world balance highlighted in my sagas. Through countless organizations I hope we can reach a better outcome for people and our earth.

The greek god Hermes wore winged sandals. Anyone who wore them would have the ability to travel anywhere in the universe with great speed. That is the inspiration behind the logo for this brand, representing the transformation to reaching our fullest potential and go for it.

In the future I want to make clothing with both style and functions that enhances individual strengths, utilizing the technology to it’s fullest potential.

The world is full of innovative designs in many forms.

Saga is the artist name that I took upon myself in dedication of illuminating world sagas for our increased awareness and better understanding of ourselves and the world.

It is inspired by a norse godess of clarity called Saga. In the mythology, her stories offer insights, morals, and lessons, guiding mortals in their endeavors. I actually found out about this after I took the name for that exact purpose. Because I am a modern norwegian viking on a travel to... well, do the opposite of raiding, it fits well.

“ILLOOMINATOR”

Built as a never ending machine for ideas and creation, I am a designer of my own making, for better and for worse.

I was raised into this world to see it’s wonders with wide eager eyes, and to expose the observed through ambitious presentations.

Yet, in a time of constant information and unrealistic expectations, I stumbled again and again, always relearning my first steps as a baby learning to walk the earth. And I was not treating this baby well as I cursed it for falling.

At night, I often dreamt of enormous waves comming towards me. I discovered my shadow side of constant rumination into overwhelmingness.

I learned through jumping into the tallest and most destructive wave, a time of severe anxiety, that my transformational word was clarity/ illumination. Only through clarity could I learn to master balance of all things. To stop being overwhelmed by all the noise and surfacing truths it seemed I could not affect but should.

And with this clarity,  create a loom of insight.

Constantly weaving through threads of light and sound, the collected resolutions of worldspread stories, into illuminating tapestries of a better reality.

That is my calling.  

The journey will be profound and challenging.

It remains to see if I will manage to balance all the factors into a functioning equlibrium machine of everlasting impact.

‍

I want to create tools for guidance and transformation through the stories of our own making.

By capturing the world with its stories and elements, I hope to craft experiences of immersive interactions where the user can get a sense of clear prescence.

I will do this in two parts;

One physically: Handcrafted tabletop tools and home furniture from my store and gallery.

One digitally:

My vision for the future of this project category is to create an immersive game (VRMMORPG) that enhances cognitive abilities through the daily escape of entertainment. Where you can learn through curiosity in a world of your choosing. A destiny of your design woven into a tapestry of reality by meeting individual learning needs.

On my travels I will capture the real world inspirations; all it’s abstracts, all diverse characteristics and make concept arts as a pre-production for the future game I want to make.

I have always loved animals. So many absurd creatures of wonder and ways they affect the earth.

A long time ago we were gatherers picking herbs, fishing fish and hunting. It all was in a healthy balance and flow with diversity People slowly started hoarding resources for efficience, and now the industry has scaled to the point we mass produce animals in bad conditions for them, us and the environment.

I believe in a good and steady wave to fix this. Knowing nature and stories of how different people collaborate with it is a good start. Plus there are exciting creatures to uncover!

‍

Earth contains so many extraordinary locations and wonders, all packed with daily adventures. I will open doors of exciting and soothing escapes to all these destinations by sharing them with you, while searching for the essence of each country to include in my projects.

‍

Throughout my travels I will witness and learn traditional preparation of food and our co-existence with nature, in all it’s unison or exploitations.

The plant world is always around us, and yet I keep rediscovering just how fascinating and full of potential it can be. It holds a key to the balance, of giving and recieving through nurturing. That creates longevity for both the health and environment.

‍

How we express ourselves have a profound effect on our world in constant motion. It can motivate in confidence, or destroy in anger.

Wildfires are natures way of regenerating the earth, allowing important nutrients to re-enter the soil to create new habitats for growth. But out of control it can cause great destruction that struggle to recover. Just like our tempered energy.

My choreography style as an artist will reflect this regeneration with elements of strength and survival picked up from world choreography and ancient martial art techniques.

All wrapped in the expression of our constant inner duel between our primal nature (limbic system) and calculated control (prefrontal cortex).

‍

Aquiring knowledge not only expands our understanding of the world but also empowers us to make informed decisions, navigate challenges, and contribute meaningfully to our communities and society.

Sometimes all we need is to slow down, ask the right question or see something from another perspective to meet in solution.  

It is a collaboration to be human and shape earth through preservation of values and expansion in a time of rapid progression.

‍

On my travels, I make short interviews with people all around the globe that inspires the stories.

I used to pretend to sleep when the flight attendant served coffee. Then I exposed myself to literally ‘meet’ my fears, and after a lot of awkwardness wired my brain to build real connections with everyone. I learned to discover their vaults of stories effectively.

Truth is we all have a special gift, or value to be learned. With that gift also comes a flaw that makes us characteristically human.

We are formed through our interactions, and this is where learning communication and charisma is key.

I found that learning to set boundaries for myself in respectful ways while remaining open was a challenge for me. I found the solution to be easy with this philosophy: Do not change through shame, but transform through inspiration.

All the people you meet are mentors on your journey. Treasure them.

‍

There is an exterior and interior of a journey, and that is called home. It is where we belong in this world. With ourselves and each other.

In a world where constant information is overwhelming us, that sometimes feel hard.

I was told “Life is not for the faint hearted”. Truth is we all have faint hearts. Life is not for anyone, unless we do it right. Unrealistic all the time, but for most of the time, we can even the odds to navigate better what comes our way.

Thoughts leads to words, words leads to action, action leads to reality. So it has to start with aware thoughts and knowledge of how we are built, so we can understand and wire the neurons in our brain over time. With mindfulness that becomes more easy, and throughout cultures the techniques are endless.

I want life to be for everyone, so I will share my discovered tools for navigating the mind.

‍

Stories are medicine for the mind.

Traveling the world to artify remarkable stories, to make clarity in uncertain times.

Clarity is found in transformation, and transformation happens through stories. I will find real life sagas to illuminate awareness through my cinematic music video shorts.

Unlocking secret resolutions from each country on how to balance our natural ego and wished persona, through my cinematic music videos. I hope the stories will branch of to bear fruits that will benefit and unify us.

The hidden network in nature connects the wonders of life, keeping our world alive by distributing the elements and nutrients across everything.  I see that same potential in branching off stories. By highlighting and sharing them we can balance resources in our fast progression while preserving what matters.
