He was a Swedish graphic designer, painter and sculptor. Jansson studied at the Otte Sköld School of Painting in Stockholm. He continued his education in Spain and France. In 1958 he founded Grödingegruppen, which included himself, Rune Pettersson and Nalle Werner, as well as, for a time, Gerry Eckhardt and Sixten Haage. The group also exhibited abroad, including Rome, Milan, Hamburg and Montreal, as well as the United States and Poland. Together with Björn (Nalle) Werner, he exhibited at De Ungas salong in Stockholm in 1953 and participated in the group exhibition Parisersalongen in Esseltehasllen and in the traveling exhibition promoting the art of the popular movements Art on Paper. Jansson's graphic experiments with prints and glue produced vivid, abstract images. Of interest are his polychrome wood reliefs, worked with power tools and cut from monolithic blocks with hammered dowels and nails. His public works include wood reliefs for the Swedish Wood Institute and a polychrome wood relief for the Astra factory in the Netherlands, as well as reliefs for the municipality of Lidingö.
