Art Projects 2023

Carola Grahn

Exhibition Period May 6–Nov 5 , 2023
Opening May 6, 11.00–16.00

On May 6, we open this year's large exhibition in the Sculpture Park with the artist Carola Grahn (b. 1982) who explores our relationship to nature, rituals and sacred places.

Based on the Sami worldview, Grahn explores our relationship to, and ideas about, nature. In the Sculpture Park, she explores topics such as rituals, sacrifices and magic and fantasies of being in contact with the spirit of the forest. Through installations, with elements of dark humor and references to popular cultural, she encourages us to reflect on power relations, the future of the planet, and our own way of life.
 
I am interested in looking deeper into what role Sami cosmology can play in today's search for a more sustainable approach to nature and the earth's resources. Is it possible to imagine an animated nature and if so what would it mean for our modern lifestyle? (Carola Grahn)
 
During the exhibition period, which extends from May to November, the visitor can take part in several activities in connection to the exhibition, such as live experiences and open workshops in Wanås Konst Studio. 

Carola Grahn (b. 1982 Jokkmokk, Sápmi, works in Malmö) works conceptually in a range of different mediums where she playfully challenges stereotypes that often relate to her Sami origins with a focus on themes such as power structures and social constructions. Grahn graduated from the Royal Academy of Arts in 2013. In recent years, she has had extensive national and international exhibition activities and received the Asmund and Lizzie Arles sculptor prize in 2021. Carola Grahn is represented in the collections at the Statens Konstråd and Moderna Museet.
