Her creations resonate with profound shifts—be they physical, emotional, or historical. Drawing from a rich tapestry of inspirations, including mythology, sci-fi, and the annals of art history. Ljus's invites audiences to a realm where the present moment is momentarily set aside, allowing for a cathartic journey through emotion, only to circle back with a rejuvenated perspective. Employing a blend of the abstract and the literal, she reimagines literary, fictional, and historical themes, often through a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. At the heart of her repertoire is the notion of transformation. Each piece, echoing life's cyclical dance of birth, decay, and rebirth, beckons onlookers to ponder the depths of change. Her visual lexicon unfolds with a mix of geometric musings and organic shapes, painting dreams and hinting at alternate dimensions. There's a deliberate interplay of color and form—a testament to her infatuation with their symbiotic relationship. Ljus's canvases pulsate with energy, largely credited to her choice of spirited, juxtaposed colors. The echoes of Fauvism, Cubism, and Abstract Expressionism, particularly the traces of Orphism and color field techniques, are undeniable in her work. Moreover, the recurring patterns and symbols in her pieces are deliberate nods to mythology, science fiction, and the annals of art history. Ljus's meticulous method involves a profound exploration of narrative through the prism of elementary forms and vivid colors, often blurring the lines between the abstract and the definitive. Her penchant for the tactile essence of paper and water-soluble pigments pushes her to constantly experiment with varied mediums, crafting semi-abstract artworks. Each creation undergoes an intriguing evolution. Beginning with a detailed watercolor foundation, the piece is subject to alterations in color fields and strokes over days or even weeks, reflecting the evolving thoughts and sentiments that sparked its inception. This fluid process sometimes yields unforeseen motifs, adding serendipitous layers to her work. Ljus's oeuvre is thoughtfully segmented into series: "Renewals" delves into the nuances of change. "Strange Worlds" is a poetic contemplation of alternate realities and entities.
