Residence: Tartu, Estonia
Birthplace: Jogeva, Estonia

I practice painting and graphics, and presently work with linocut. In my works I try to connect the Middle Ages with contemporary topics: monks with laptops, kings with hamburgers, technology, work, free time, etc. In my work is a special place for humor and irony that is connected with everyday life.

A freelance artist, Martin [Boheem] Vaher was born in Jõgeva, Estonia, in 1977, and his interest for art began in primary school. Deeper discussions and works began at the Tartu Art School for Children. In 1995, he began his studies at the Tartu School of Art, graduating in 2001, and therafter began his study of Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Estonian Academy of Arts in Tallinn, Estonia.
