The famous artist Klara Kristalova returns to Pilane with three bronze sculptures: What holds me back carries me further, Röse (Cairn), and lastly, Bird Girl, which was made for Pilane.

Klara Kristalova takes us to a world of fairy tale creatures, where trees, rocks and animals can take on human features, and humans assume characteristics from animals and nature.

BELIVE THE STRANGEST THINGS: CHARLIE ROBERTS' COSMIC HEDGE

And your prayers, they break the sky in two
Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
(David Bowie)

At the movies, even period pieces give away when they were made. However meticulous the construction of a historical scene (or for that matter a futuristic one), the look of the thing is locked into the moment of its making, and not the one it is describing. It’s always about the present negotiating a past.

From the Press Release:

Maria Nordin, born in 1980, works with watercolor in larger format and with animation. A recurring theme in her work is the body, skin and gaze.

Maria Nordin is considered one of Sweden's foremost watercolorists in her generation and has received several awards in recent years, including Carl-Axel Valén’s cultural scholarship 2017.
