Rörelsen / The Movement

The installation The Movement consists of three red vinyl swings along the promenade that guides visitors around Mörby Gård Sculpture Park, located on Ornö, Haninge.

The swings hang high in the trees, and the long ropes provide a meditative, tingling sensation. All three swings are wide, so that all of us thick butted can fit comfortable, but one of them is extra wide to accommodate two people. The swings have different appearances but share the same style. Playful fringes, red vinyl, and oversized chains evoke associations with both childhood and adulthood, suggesting that perhaps the spiritual distance between the two is not as vast as we often act. The installation is about togetherness, play, and intimacy.

Commissoned by Mörby Gård Konst for the exhibition LEKEN, summer of 2023.
