The people in the photograph came from far to the north in 1931 - an event that is still recounted and had major consequences for many people’s lives. Here, language becomes part of the landscape itself and carries the story forward.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTomas Colbengtson (b. 1957, Björkvattnet, Tärnaby) works with memory, history, and issues of repatriation and decolonization. His art draws on his own experiences and traditional Sámi craftsmanship, through which knowledge and stories have been passed down through generations. The craft carries experiences of a life close to nature and an understanding of humanity’s dependence on and interaction with its surroundings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gïela dájvan (språk-landskap)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55843584770377,"sku":null,"price":65500.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0280\/9741\/3229\/files\/G_ela_d_jvan_spr_k-landskap__Tomas_Colbengtson.jpg?v=1793795921","url":"https:\/\/gallerihelle.com\/en\/products\/tomas-colbengtson-68","provider":"Galleri Helle Knudsen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
