Transitions brings together six artists whose practices explore change and shift in various forms—through material, image, and process. The participating artists are Agnes Widbom, Amanda Karlsson, Kerstin Glamheden, Kiwa Saito, Maria Lundström, and Linda Lasson.
In Agnes Widbom’s (b. 1990) work, transitions take shape as visual worlds emerge from fragments and references drawn from photography and staging. The human presence is there, but often indirectly—in parts of bodies, in shadows, or in everyday objects that carry traces of something beyond themselves.
Amanda Karlsson (b. 1989, Karlstad) works with staging, construction, and documentation, where image and object continuously merge. Her process moves between the planned and the transformed, allowing narratives of drive, vulnerability, and imagined worlds to emerge in shifting forms.
Kerstin Glamheden’s (b. 1958, Falkenberg) painting moves through an inward landscape, where mood and state take precedence over motif. Her works can be read as shifts in feeling and space, where something dreamlike and searching repeatedly resurfaces.
In Kiwa Saito’s (b. 1981, Tokyo) embroideries, transitions are both material and temporal. The slow process of working with thread and fabric generates images that unfold over time, where the bodily and the meditative are present in every stitch.
Maria Lundström (b. 1954, Arvidsjaur) works in a space between abstraction and figuration, where forms and colours are allowed to shift freely through processes balancing control and intuition. Her works open up spaces in which the direction of the image is never fixed.
In Linda Lasson’s (b. 1975) textile works, transitions also become material and thematic. Through stitching, density, and layering, surfaces emerge where nature, the contemporary, and material intersect in expressions that shift between the organic and the graphic.
Together, the artists form an exhibition in which Transitions does not point to a single meaning, but rather describes a recurring condition—appearing in different forms across the construction of the image, the expression of materials, and the narratives that gradually unfold.
