”Humans were here” Stenkol
Antropocen lider mot sitt slut. Vårt ihärdiga användande av olja, kol och gas har försatt oss i den 6:e massutrotningen. Om vi fortsätter leva som i dag kommer stora delar av jordens yta att vara helt obeboeliga inom en mycket snar framtid. Denna bit av stenkol kommer sannolikt från ett av tre skepp som sänktes av minor utanför Ölands sydöstra kust under andra världskriget. Det finns inte stenkol naturligt på platsen där jag hittade dessa.

19/10-2019 there is an opening at Rian Designmuseums in Falkenberg of the project “Smyckoteket” 12-16.
“Smyckoteket är namnet på Rian designmuseums nya samling av smyckekonst. Medan föremålen i en vanlig museisamling oftast är placerade i magasin, ska smyckena i Smyckoteket kunna cirkulera i samhället och bäras av alla. Med start i februari 2020 kommer det att gå att välja och boka ett smycke via Smyckotekets webbkatalog och sedan hämta ut det på museet för en låneperiod. Smyckoteket kommer att innehålla arbeten av moderna och samtida smyckekonstnärer, både svenska och utländska, med en stor bredd i uttryck och material. Under hösten 2019 visas de första 20 inköpta smyckena”.

Åsa will participate at Sthlm Craft Week at Hangmen Projects - HANDMADE TALES
04.10 - 01.11 2019
Handmade tales
To coincide with Stockholm Craft Week, hangmenProjects presents a current narrative on craft by 17 material-based artists. This story, through its execution, reflects the long history of craft in relation to both it’s value and gender hierarchies.
One of the dividing lines between arts and crafts is based on a tale that fails to mention that many forms of art practices are based on knowledge of a technology.
Another fable is the supremacy and subordination of thought and hand. An eternal either-or, who might as well be both-and.
That's why there is something important to tell, and at hangmenProjects we have selected 17 artists' perspectives. Based on their reality. A handmade storytelling.
