Artist Nygårds Karin Bengtsson, born in Mora and active in Skåne, now shows works at Rättviks konsthall. The exhibition stems from a visit to Övralid.
Everything began with a place. Nygårds Karin Bengtsson had driven past the sign to Övralid for many years before she turned off.
There she found Verner von Heidenstam's last home, a white house that evoked a strong sense of loneliness. She describes how the feeling was embedded in the walls.
The artist believes everyone carries loneliness. The exhibition at Rättviks konsthall builds on that experience.
