Pure Text
Text-based artworks by Johnny Ramstedt
Pure Text is my ongoing series of text-based artworks — short, sharp fragments of thought shaped by life in motion. These works are born from observation, overheard words, city noise, and quiet reflection. They are both visual and verbal, designed to be seen and read — at once raw, minimal, and emotionally precise.
Each piece is a snapshot of urban existence: solitude in crowded places, fleeting encounters, digital tension, the poetry of the everyday. Printed large or small, they become meditative signs in modern space — reminders, interruptions, questions.
The words are not answers. They are invitations — to think, to pause, to feel.
These works are available as limited edition prints and vinyl installations for interiors, workspaces, or public display. I also create custom pieces on commission, tailored to specific environments or themes.
Explore the Pure Text collection and bring words to your walls.
A gentle reminder that simply being there can change everything.
Minimal words, maximum meaning.
