UTSTÄLLNGEN HAR VARIT!

The artist Jan Ovland - Photographer Tobias Hägg/airpixels
in collaboration with Gustav Ovland’s Stärkelsefabriken in Härnestad

Sitting on our dock and staring blankly. Fascinated by the formations of the clouds and the changing light on the water’s surface. A week later, I sit in Stärkelsefabriken and stare straight into a rusty sheet. - Is it a landscape slowly emerging in the metal? I enjoy letting my thoughts wander freely. It gives me space to reflect and create my own images.

Do you also appreciate art that leaves something for the viewer to interpret and ponder? We live in a society often dominated by directly measurable demands. Thus, the free space of art becomes important for increasing creativity, well-being, and thinking in different ways.

But whether you are gazing out at a stormy sea, a rusty sheet, or visiting us here at Kivik Art Hall;

Take the time to observe and absorb. Borrow a yellow chair and sit and stare!
