Artist in residence "På väg 45" in Åmål Municipality and Åmål Art Gallery. "På väg 45" is a residency collaboration between three municipal art galleries, Vänersborgs konsthall, Konsthallen Trollhättan and Åmåls konsthall.
Field painting together with Åmål's residents and friends. The painting is a way of jointly witnessing biological diversity, here understood as species richness in number, in variation, in variation within species and in the ability to change.
The in-situ painting takes place like a workout session and relates to a tradition of wild drawing. An archive of the joint field paintings and the workshop materials were created and presented in the gallery.
