Liv Hansen
Danish illustrator and actress
about
I’m Liv Hansen, a Danish illustrator and actor based in Copenhagen. My work explores mood, nostalgia and character-driven storytelling.
As an illustrator, I focus on life in Denmark between the 1920s to 1960: rural settings, shiftting seasons, and imagines scenes from a past that still feels near. Working primarily in colored pencil and gouace, I draw inspiration from family history, vintage films and details of everyday life.
Trained at the Lee Strasberg T heatre & Film Institute in Los Angeles, I've appeared in productions across the UK, Canada and Europe, including the British crime drama Caught in Between and the upcoming sci-fi feature A Universe Apart. My voice work spans narrative, ADR and commercial projects in both American English and Danish. [See more about my film and voice work.]
Rooted in Nordic storytelling yet shaped by international experience, my work bridges illustration and acting through a shared sense of observation and quiet mood.
