Born in South Africa and raised in Australia, Varg Redbeard became fascinated by poetry at a young age. Since the age of ten, he has been writing: short stories, screenplays, music. But his greatest love has always been poetry. Inspired by the Romantic poets and the sagas of Norse, he was guided to pen stories of love, loss and adventure. Spending years travelling across the Nordic countries, he was inspired to create this piece of art.
