ABOUT the exhibition
Henrik Andersson and Johanna Adolfsson explore the borderland between conscious and unconscious landscapes based on the mythical Sandemar Castle in Haninge municipality. Also included in the exhibition is a photographer by Tuija Lindström.
The artist Henrik Andersson and the cultural geographer Johanna Adolfsson’s exhibition is based on a joint fieldwork in the landscape around Sandemar Castle in Haninge municipality.
- Sandemar has an unbroken line backwards as a fideicommiss, must make the thoughts and ideas that shaped the landscape in the 17th century to some extent can still be seen today. It’s about how you can own land, and how you can use and extract something from it, says Henrik Andersson.
At Haninge Art Gallery, he presents project projects, reproductions, photographs and maps that are visually and ideologically based on the changes that take place in the landscape from the 17th century’s great power era via industrialism to the present day. The gaze and vision are set in relation to land users, ownership and exploitation. I Konsthallen compiles Henrik Andersson and Johanna Adolfsson’s fieldwork into a montage where the landscape’s psychological impact is shaped.
Another central starting point is Lake Tjursjön, which is located north of Dalarövägen next to Sandemar. The bog that borders the lake is important for biodiversity but is also used as part of a hunting park. Tjursjön are also places where photographs Tuija Lindström made her famous photographic stagings, Women at Tjursjön and photo suites that are also included in the exhibition. - We have explored the change of places with geographical and cultural-geographical methods but in an imaginative way. By using different time layers, we can evoke and tell about something that did not occur and beyond what we have material on, says Johanna Adolfsson.
- A landscape must always be interpreted. There are conscious motives and ideas about it, but it also hides unconscious things. It is the borderland between the conscious and the unconscious that we have explored, says Henrik Andersson.
For exhibition, a printed field guide is also presented on how time and space are shaped in the landscape around Sandemar.
