Today I have been on an art walk with my friend and colleges Lisa Björke from Stockholm, we started at the design museum - Röhsska and we was not very satisfied/impressed over the MFA work. Some was good, absolutely, but it didn’t touch us so much… after we closed the door we almost forgot what we had seeing…

No photos from that place, it is not aloud to take photos there…
Afterwards we walk in the ”summer” rain up to one of my favourite places/spots of Gothenburg’s art world, Konstepidemin, there we look at the BFA student from HDK, it was much fresher and the show rooms, galleries at Konstepedemin was viewing the students pieces much better, that was our conclusion after seeing the both HDK exhibitions.

First we run into the potato eater…
"On Saturday5/6 -10, on the open day at Konstepidemin, Catrin Serck Hanssen, Ewa Brodin and Marie Sjölander started their art project Potatisätarna/The potato eaters. Eva reports that the response from visitors was fantastic. The neighbors are also very positive. The artists got to hear many stories and memories about cultivating potatoes and received good advice about growing potatoes."
