Konstlyftet: Memory Intensa
11.10 – 12.11 2023
Konstlyftet is a creative initiative aimed at adults with cognitive and/or physical disabilities. The initiative provides a platform for participants to share their experiences through temporary exhibitions and public art. ‘Memory Intensa’ is the thirteenth exhibition within the project.
The participating artists in the exhibition are Emma Bengtsson, Kerstin Berg, Mahdi Jama, Lisbeth Johansson, Anja Löfgren, Linnéa Persson, Marino Satalic and Olle Trottestam. The group has worked together in the workshop under the guidance of the artist Max Avasoo throughout the month of August. Each participant has worked based on their own ideas using charcoal drawing, spray, acrylic painting, textiles, and drawing, and a selection of their works are displayed in the exhibition.
