Mona Wallström
Mona Wallström is one of Sweden’s leading jewellery artists, based in Gothenburg; in a studio in Konstepidemin, the former isolation hospital. Regarding House No. 10 sums up a long-standing project which focuses on the location of her studio as well as the architecture and history of the buildings.
The artist tells me about her interest in the building opposite her - House Number 10 - and about the trees in the copse behind it. She also describes the wooden boxes that physicians used in former days to carry their instruments when visiting patients at home, and how different bacteria appear under a microscope. All these details give off echoes in various ways in the new jewellery she has assembled under the title Regarding House no.10. It is quite a sprawling collection of works, at least at first glance. What holds them together is a series of associations and a meandering narrative rather than a shared design idiom. / Love Jönsson
