Ego, Self-portrait by L Lidströmer, oil on canvas 60 x 60 cm, 1987

The installation "Tabula Rasa"^[6] at Stockholm Art Fair 1994 attracted a lot of attention.^[7] Instead of "hommage" she has created the concept "femmage"^[8][9][10](a female celebration). Series of femmages to e.g. Camille Claudel^[11] and to Titian^[12] have been shown and have attracted attention in Sweden,^[13] but also in Paris (Centre Culturel Suédois),^[14] Mons in Belgium (Musée des Beaux Arts)^[15] and Rome (Istituto Svedese).^[16][17] Louise Lidströmer has signed her paintings with "Ljubi" until 1996, L² for sculptures and "L. Lidströmer" for paintings from 1996.^[18][19]
