Butterfly Effects by Johanna Törnqvist

Valuable or useless are concepts that Johanna Törnqvist takes on differently in her art. By working with materials that lack value, she turns the question of how we value our material. What is valuable and what is useless? How do we view our resources and resources? What materials will be the new raw materials of the future? And where is the value, in the material or in the work of the hand?

Through fusing, needle and thread, she processes and refines debris into unrecognisable and creates embellishments for both room and body.
