This is one out of two installations in the exhibition “Solglimt” in Uppsala – Konstfrämjandet Uppland in September 2024.
Så skimrande I and Så skimrande II are two installations I produced in September 2024. Eight artists were invited by the Art Promotion Association of Uppland (Konstfrämjandet) to engage with works by former psychiatric patients from the historic Ulleråker Mental Hospital in Uppsala.
Så skimrande I recontextualizes archival works through visual and moving-image interventions, exploring memory, time, perception, and the historical narratives embedded in the space.
Så skimrande II, presented outdoors in the fountain, interprets both paintings and mosaics, creating a dialogue between my work and the historical pieces. Most of the original works were displayed anonymously due to confidentiality, emphasizing both their aesthetic value and the sensitive context of their creation.
Original Video 7 min/ Sound of me singing “Så skimrande var aldrig havet” by Evert Taube.
