Guldrush by Daniela Hedman and Agnes Larsson

Artist list

Daniela Hedman, Agnes Larsson

”GULDRUSH” is Daniela Hedman's and Agnes Larsson's first exhibition together. Working and living in Stockholm, Sweden, but both with a connection to the swedish island Gotland where the artists now will show their work for the first time.
The exhibition will take place deep inside an underground rock shelter located in the industrial city of Slite. Slite offers Gotland's unique nature and at the same time a pure industrial environment. Inspired by this place the artists have created the exhibition ”GULDRUSH”. In connection with the exhibition the artists will hold a workshop for locals and visitors on the island, introducing thinking- and artistic processes related to contemporary jewellery.The project is a collaboration between Daniela Hedman, agnes Larsson and Slite Utvecklig.
Daniela Hedman's work relates to her fundamental interest with the human body. She is fascinated by the body’s ongoing physical presence and what impact it has on our spirituality. Her jewellery revolves around the relationship between the object and the body, and she is constantly searching for different connections between the two of them.

In deep investigations of natural materials Agnes Larsson is working with opposites to create tensions in the material. Her work is often inspired by the powerful forces that surround us in life such as heaviness and lightness, living and dead. The core of her work lies in the material which rather than telling a truth is focusing on forming a paradox.
