This project explores how tools shape the process of making.Ceramic craft is guided by tools that come with inherited expectations — how they’re held, what gestures they allow, and the forms they tend to produce. For this project, I’ve built tools with no link to ceramic craft to interrupt those habits and open up new movements. I treat tools as active participants in the process. In the approach I’m working with now, body, tool, and clay interact directly, and the form grows out of that exchange.

Come closer, enter the portal of my roots and open your senses. Can you hear it? Smell it, feel it? This is my landscape, within and without.

Karin Lengstrand - ”Sacrificial Surface”

As a counteract to everything we were taught about treasures, I began to search for traces of my late father. Around his studio there were familiar signs of him in unfinished projects and coffee stains. I found that the stain is not necessarily a flaw, but a finding. The nature of the stains is careless and yet care
returns with the gesture of noticing.

Considering the clay as a sacrificial surface, I let residues from coffee travel across, through and within the object, leaving a mark that reflects the action but transforms it. The work seeks to reconsider the stain as something worthy of attention – a material that carries meaning and memory.

Nadine Wilde - ”An Ever Changing View”

An Ever Changing View is a woven sculptural work that explores the instability and fragmentation of memory. Through an auto-ethnographic approach, it draws on inherited narratives, folklore and a connection to plants, reflecting a layered identity shaped between England and Bulgaria. Blurred, shifting imagery operates as both aesthetic and symbolic means, achieved through processes such as screen-printing and painting directly onto the warp before weaving.

Myrto Patramani - “Always Coming Home”

“Always Coming Home” is an installation grounded in material exploration, symbolism, and storytelling. The installation explores land as both a physical and emotional entity, carrying memory, mythology, and personal history through hybrid sculptures and fantastical landscapes. ”

”This spatial installation structures visibility and invisibility. It holds absence as an ongoing condition produced by contemporary border regimes, where certain lives are rendered ungrievable and vanish beyond recognition.”

På lördag (påskafton) öppnar Kent Karlssons utställning,
varmt välkomna på vernissage!

Öppettider i påsk:
Lördag: 12-16
Söndag-måndag: stängt

Kent Karlsson (f. 1945) har under flera decennier haft en betydande roll i svenskt konstliv. Hans offentliga verk finns på flera platser i Sverige, och hans arbeten ingår i samlingarna vid bland andra Moderna Museet, Nationalmuseum och Göteborgs konstmuseum.

Denna utställning utgår från ett retrospektivt urval i kombination med några nyare verk. Den har vuxit fram genom samtal och återkommande besök i hans ateljé. Karlsson har gett stor frihet i såväl urval som tolkning och utställningen presenterar därför just en tolkning av konstnärskapet.

I verken framträder två tydliga och på många sätt motsatta rörelser. Den ena riktar blicken mot människans villkor, handlingar och de strukturer hon verkar inom. Här finns verk som berör död, migration, tro och makt, där arkitektoniska former, symboliska objekt och återkommande element framstår som bärare av mänskliga föreställningar och rester.

Den andra rörelsen framträder tydligt i ateljén, i de verk Karlsson själv beskriver som privata. Också här finns ett tillstånd av avskildhet och efteråt, men med en annan riktning. Snarare än att stanna vid det som gått förlorat fogas nya helheter samman, där det organiska och det konstruerade möts i former som pendlar mellan det absurda, det lekfulla och det levande.

Samtidigt är dessa inte renodlade motsatser. Det mörka och det lekfulla, det ödesmättade och det absurda möts ofta inom samma verk. Just i denna dubbelhet tar utställningen sin form.
