Unfolding Image+
The exhibition Unfolding Image (Konstnärshuset 9-18 September) was based on a collaboration between Koto Katoaka, a third generation folding wall master from Japan, and five selected artists based in Sweden.
Ylva Carlgren. Vikvägg: Utan titel. Vägghängt verk: Continuous separation
The concept was to explore the folding walls in a Swedish contemporary context, while keeping the deep respect for the craft intact. The choice of artists was based on how their respective artistic practices could interact with the folding wall and challenge its possibilities and limitations.
Now Nordiska Galleriet, together with the artists, is making a new version of the exhibition - a follow-up based on the idea that the natural context of the folding walls will be in the home environment. The artists have chosen one of their folding walls from Unfolding Image and placed it together with another of their own works in a room.
Unfolding Image+ can be seen between 8 October and 25 October in Nordiska Galleriet's showroom on Nybrogatan 11.

In Scandinavia, we are used to the fact that there are several flexible shelving systems and storage solutions to choose from, where different parts can be used to customise something that covers all everyday needs. Many people have grown up with shelving systems such as String or Elfa, which have achieved their popularity thanks to an extremely well thought-out design, good choice and relatively easy assembly. However, it is all the more difficult to get a shelving system to suit everyone's needs in terms of different styles, which therefore leaves plenty of room for competition.
