NationalitySwedish

Jonny Forsström (1944–2017[1]) was a Swedish picture artist, sculptor, and filmmaker.[2] He is best known for his pencil and mixed-media works.[3]

Early life

Jonny Forsström was born in Stora Möckleby, Öland, Sweden, but grew up in the mining town Malmberget, Lapland, Sweden.[2] After leaving home, he moved to Alingsås and later to Trollhättan.

Forsström was prescribed eyeglasses at age six, which he later described as a sure sign of weakness in the 1950s that would rule out soccer and other typical physical children's play.[4] However, Forsström explained that the glasses allowed him to see clearly, and he became a by-standing voyeur, able to take particular note of people's gestures.[4]

Forsström worked many jobs after his school years. He worked as a sailor, shipyard worker, and in the hospitality industry in Gothenburg and Stockholm.[1] Forsström described his vision of art as having given him hope and a new sense of freedom.[4]

Scottish Gaelic orthography

Scottish Gaelic orthography has evolved over many centuries and is heavily etymologizing in its modern form. This means the orthography tends to preserve historical components rather than operating on the principles of a phonemic orthography where the graphemes correspond directly to phonemes. This allows the same written form in Scottish Gaelic to result in a multitude of pronunciations, depending on the spoken variant of Scottish Gaelic. For example, the word coimhead ('watching') may resu...
