26 April – 18 May 2024
Detriti Gallery is delighted to present Redskap för enkelt leverne, an exhibition of artworks by Maria Safronova Wahlström.
At the core of Safronova Wahlström´s work is the investigation of collective behaviours and the language practice we use to signal our social belonging. In her work, she tries to reflect on our collective identity; social myths; ideological branding and moralism.
Through a multidisciplinary approach she focuses on the opposition between conceptual and visual form, contemporary and historical references. She uses stone, plastic, metal, wood and "found objects", which with their respective qualities, history and provenance are brought into dialogue with techniques of engraving, sculpting, casting, UV and screen printing.
‘Redskap för enkelt leverne’ is an exhibition of a new series of works by Maria Safronova Wahlström with the aim of bringing her artistic production and the exhibition space into a colourful yet reflective conversation.
