som sten

Jenny Käll

Through a site- and material-driven practice, Jenny Käll works with sculpture and installation with elements of text and video. Her work revolves around the human relationship and approach to materials, other beings, and landscapes. In a poetic play on the border between object and body, figurative and abstract, constant and fleeting, different materials are allowed […]

Futurum Exaktum

Nils Ekman

In a perpetual flow of frenetic creation, the organic unites with the inorganic, the hard with the soft, the dead with the living. The Garden of Earthly Delights (1490–1510) by Hieronymus Bosch has been interpreted by art historians as a prophetic vision of how God’s creation is distorted by the destructive potency of mankind. The painting can thus be […]

Interpretive drift

Jenny Åkerlund

When viewing a bright surface, a snow covered landscape or a clear sky, thin lines or shadows can be seen moving slowly in the field of view. These so called floaters, visual traces of the aging eye, and the subjective mediation of the field of vision they give rise to, works as a starting point […]

BLAST FROMTHE PAST

Cecilia Sterner

It is the opposite of the slippery bench at the airport that urges you to hurry on and leave room for the next customer, and it mocks your desperate attempts to utilise every space for maximum efficiency. Lean […]

Magnhild Opdøl – (alone at last)

Magnhild Opdøl

When being in nature, as I have been much more through this past year, you feel impossibly small and at the mercy of nature for your survival. A city, like Göteborg, feels at most, a few centuries old; in nature, you’re on geological time and your own life is just a speck. I have used […]

Here in eternal gales

Jonna Hägg

 I feel connected with nature and the forests, it gives me peace. It is “forest healing”, or what you wanna call it, to be with nature. I’ve been with this forest since I was five years old and now I’m sixty-eight so of course I feel a connection to this forest. I can see where […]

Kolbrún Inga Söring och Sam Message

Sparkplug is going to kickstart a new era of LGBTQ+ culture in Gothenburg. This week-long festival is made by LGBTQ+ people for LGBTQ+ people. The festival is all about coming together, making together and claiming space together.  LGBTQ+ life in Gothenburg is fractured.

Nora Adwan – Defragmentation

Nora Adwan

” At night I would see a crocodile wandering on the wall of our house. Whenever I wanted to get out of the door, leave, the crocodile rushed over the wall to the door and I was too afraid to go out.” Defragmentation is a series of pieces working with the idea of inherited trauma, […]
