Born in 1965 in Lund, Sweden. Based in Oslo.
Påhlsson works in various techniques, primarily with electronic art, exploring areas such as human understanding and experience of the virtual, the physical, modelling and investigating alternative synthetic worlds and the natural forces of physics and the environment. Following the emergence of artificial intelligence he also works on projects that explore art and its function and role in an AI world. Påhlsson also works together with performers from other art fields, exploring related themes live in electronic art projects/performances.
Påhlsson was Norway's representative at the Venice Biennale in 1997, and has exhibited at Spencer Brownstone Gallery, Almine Rech Gallery, The New Museum (NYC), Sørlandets Kunstmuseum, MGM, Trafo Kunsthall and Kunstnerforbundet. His works have been acquired by Astrup Fearnley, the National Museum, Oslo Municipality, Sørlandets Kunstmuseum, and a number of private collections nationally and internationally.
