In my first blog post I would like to start political. Waking up this morning, then reading in the news that I live in a country where 13 % of the voting people vote for a racistic party makes me sick!!! There are a few things which I will never understand in my life, and one of them is this. I am not allowed to vote for the government in Sweden because I still have the Dutch nationality, so there for I use this blog to express my vote and my worries for the Swedish country. Sweden is a rich, peaceful and beautiful country and what is better then sharing this with everybody! So please all Swedish people, help to keep it like that and fight against this negative, racistic, hate spreading party and people. In the end it will destroy the society. And if readers of this blog vote for this party, please try to explain me why?<\/p>\n

Back to my basic…art. Last week opened in Eksj\u00f6 museum the exhibition One place after another. This exhibition which I have together with my lovely sambo Greger St\u00e5hlgren shows works related to the theme how we look and experience nature. In my work I am fascinated by how we act, feel and see when we are in a natural environment. In the Netherlands the ’nature’ is designed. All the green areas are planned, no wilderness is left, even when it sometimes feels like that. In the Netherlands you could say, are humans the one who control everything, not nature. But when you look closer maybe nature wins after all. The sea takes it place again, and when humans will not do anything plants grow everywhere…<\/p>\n

In Sweden the nature feels less designed, and it seems to me that Swedish people are closer to nature. It started for me simple: when it is raining cats and dogs outside, school children have to play outside anyway. They just dress up for that! Before I moved to Sweden the forest was something almost scary for me. I could not see the sky anymore, the sky which you always see in the Dutch open landscapes. I slowly started my discovery journey in the forest, and I begin to like it more and more. When I have discussions with Greger about our works then I can see the difference in how we look at the forest. Greger sees the bigger picture, I focus more on the details because the bigger picture is to big for me at the moment, to chaotic!<\/p>\n

I will show some pictures of my work in the exhibition and I would like to invite you all to come to Eksj\u00f6 and have a look. The exhibition is there until 12 oktober!<\/p>\n

This is the Swedish text about the exhibition:<\/p>\n

ONE PLACE AFTER ANOTHER<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201dOne place after another\u201d <\/span>handlar om f\u00f6rh\u00e5llandet till naturen och hur vi ser och inte ser den. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Hannah Streefkerk och Greger St\u00e5hlgren unders\u00f6ker platser och material i ett historiskt sammanhang och f\u00f6rs\u00f6ker f\u00f6rmedla vad tiden och naturens kretslopp inneb\u00e4r f\u00f6r skogen och landskapet.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Harry Martinsson beskriver i en dikt hur vinden fortplantar sig och leker i ett tr\u00e4d. Det lekfulla och \u00f6verraskande i naturen \u00e4r n\u00e5got vi s\u00e4llan observerar sj\u00e4lva, eftersom naturen \u2013 som oftast verkar obeveklig och autonom \u2013 inte f\u00f6rst\u00e4ller sig f\u00f6r att vi \u00e4r p\u00e5 bes\u00f6k utan alltid \u00e4r just bara natur.<\/em><\/p>\n

Hannah Streefkerk unders\u00f6ker det textila uttrycket i relation till naturen, ofta med hj\u00e4lp av stygn. Omh\u00e4ndertagande \u00e4r ett ledord i sammanhanget. Hon arbetar ocks\u00e5 med landart och installationer, d\u00e4r k\u00e4nslan av att naturen \u00e4r viktig lyfts fram. Hennes textila arbeten visar p\u00e5 hur naturen beh\u00f6ver synligg\u00f6ras och ibland repareras. Detaljer i naturen accentueras. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Arbetsprocessen \u00e4r central. Det f\u00e5r ta tid att hitta detaljer. Det \u00e4r viktigt att visa upp det ofta typiskt kvinnliga textila arbetet som n\u00e5got tidskr\u00e4vande. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Greger St\u00e5hlgren arbetar med foton och installationer. Fotografierna beskriver skogens variationer, detaljer och sammanhang. Bilderna \u00e4r dubbelexponerade och tagna direkt i naturen. Ljuset \u00e4r v\u00e4sentligt. M\u00e5ngfalden och direktheten inf\u00f6r landskapet \u00e4r viktigt att f\u00f6rs\u00f6ka gestalta, lugnet och r\u00f6relsen likas\u00e5.<\/em><\/p>\n

Antika formelement dyker ibland upp som en del av en installation. Relationen mellan tr\u00e4dens former och typiska arkitektoniska formelement bidrar till att bildernas inneh\u00e5ll kommunicerar och beskriver ett tidsperspektiv.<\/em><\/p>\n
