6 March – 4 April
Look at the floor. Look closely enough to distinguish each flower. Closer, until the scratches in the linoleum appear. Closer again, until only the texture of plastic remains. Imagine observing as if through a microscope.
What do you see? Where do you position yourself and your artistic practice? How close is too close? Does proximity unsettle you, or does it reveal something otherwise invisible?
What histories surface when attention is placed on the particular, on narratives shaped by specific contexts and small cultural spaces that operate outside dominant frameworks?
Micromonument group show featured artists Emma Bäcklund, Mira Sjövall, Sofus Ravn, Ruben Risholm, Alice Indi Ryne, Ingrid Helena Pajo, Rachel Barron, Livia De Magistris, Andrea Spasic, Juliana Gómez Garzón, Isa Eriksson, Rustan Söderling, Beatrice Alvestad Lopez, Siri Tadell, Petriina Kiiskinen, Franz Ehn, Frida Ejvegård, Amanda Johansson Nyberg.
The theme for this exhibition departed from the notion of micromuseology, which looks at small and independent museums as spaces with the potential to carve alternative stories. Micromuseology focuses on collections and narratives that emerge from specific contexts and local histories, often remaining outside institutional or dominant frameworks. The exhibition extended this approach into curatorial and artistic practice, shifting attention away from a broad perspective and toward the particular. This show brought together artefacts into a constellation that collectively composed the micromonument.
