Jonny Forsström was born in Stora Möckleby, Öland, Sweden, but grew up in the mining town Malmberget, Lapland, Sweden.[2] After leaving home, he moved to Alingsås and later to Trollhättan.
Forsström was prescribed eyeglasses at age six, which he later described as a sure sign of weakness in the 1950s that would rule out soccer and other typical physical children's play.[4] However, Forsström explained that the glasses allowed him to see clearly, and he became a by-standing voyeur, able to take particular note of peoples' gestures.[4]
Forsström worked many jobs after his school years. He worked as a sailor, shipyard worker, and in the hospitality industry in Gothenburg and Stockholm.[1] Forsström described his discovery of art as having given him hope and a new sense of freedom.[4]
