NATURMINNE
Porcelain and stoneware.2025
Piece made for the outdoor one-day exhibition Naturminne set at Pålsundsberget in Stockholm where 15 artists, designers and poets showed work that speaks of the spatial and existential questions often made in relation to ecology and materialism.
We constantly move through life in a stream of experiences. Within this exhibition we wanted to direct and focus our attention on this place, what lives and thrives here, what it reminds us of, something hidden in our minds, maybe a memory. The official name of this site when translated is Nature memory Pålsundsberget. A Nature memory is the name or classification of a place that should be protected for its unique plants and species. There are only two sites in Stockholm that are classified as Nature memories.
Where we direct our attention in the cityscape it is often influenced by commercial interest. Therefore creating an open social space where consumption isn't of interest is in itself a radical action. We want to observe the entire city, including areas that easily are forgotten; and within; that words and hands species and materials come together and are joined in conversation.
Organized by Eva Reichmann, Hannah Nittnaus and Marta Duarte da Veiga.
