The whimsical and mysterious exhibit titled “A Place of Oppportunity and Transformation” debuts at the National Nordic Museum this week.
Attendees will enter through large-scale immersive installations like “The Stone Garden” to explore human fantasies, fears, secrets, and truths through music, stop-motion, and... well, little egg guys (we truly don’t know how else to put it).
Swedish artist Nathalie Djurberg uses these egg-centric ovoid shapes to represent a sort of human rebirth, following them through journeys of further self-discovery with a fairytale-like lens highly akin to the subconscious mind. Accompanying music composed by longtime collaborator Hans Berg enhances the transcendent experience.
Attendees will be able explore entrancing spaces + get up close and personal with these odd, yet endearing creatures Saturday, Aug. 3-Sunday, Oct. 27.
Access to the temporary exhibit is included in the purchase of a general admission ticket.
