Othernode Information

Othernode is the alias of Swedish artist and designer Hannes Arvid Andersson, based in the Netherlands. At the core of his design philosophy is the belief that visual elements should not merely decorate but embody the essence of the concept they represent. Design, for him, is more than aesthetics—it is a language of meaning, a tool for storytelling, and a bridge between form and function. As a conceptual creator, each project becomes a journey of discovery, exploring the heart of an idea to distill its unique visual and sensory identity. Whether crafting immersive media works, branding concepts, or site-specific installations, every line, color, and shape is meticulously chosen to reinforce the narrative and evoke deeper engagement. Driven by a passion for innovation and experimentation, Hannes continuously pushes the boundaries of design and media, striving to create tailor-made, never-before-seen pieces that captivate the eye and resonate with the mind. His work blends high-end imagery, sound design, and immersive media to offer cutting-edge creative direction for both local and global clients. His artistic work has been presented internationally at events and venues such as Mutek (Spain), Blue Metropolis Festival (Canada), EYE filmmuseum (Netherlands), Festival Internacional Mapping Girona (Spain), ZKM (Germany), Museum of the History of Bologna (Italy), National Museum of Contemporary Art (Romania), FILE Electronic Language International Festival (Brazil) & La Biennale di Venezia - 57th International Art Exhibition (Italy).
