    Hilma af Klint painted for a future she would never see.(På svenska nedan) When the Swedish visual artist died in 1944, she was convinced the world was not ready for her work—mystical, abstract paintings that seemed to belong to another time.

    An Imaginary Exchange of Letters between Engla Hägertz and Tyra Kleen (Läs blogposts på svenska HÄR) In an ongoing artistic exploration, I have imagined fictional correspondences between Engla Hägertz and other artistic voices from her time.

  • Olympics Awarded Gold for a Painting / OS Delade ut Guld för en Målning

    (På Svenska Nedan) Stockholm, summer 1912. The stadium is filled with jubilation.
