During the spring, Varberg's art gallery presents the solo exhibition Nära jorden with the artist Berit Lindfeldt.
Berit Lindfeldt portrays the seemingly simple and everyday. She is a sculptor and uses a variety of techniques and materials. Everything from concrete, clay, metal, rubber and wood, to assemblage, where she carefully joins parts of furniture and other objects she has found.
Lindfeldt’s work is characterized by the search for form. She wants to establish a form for something experienced and original. A memory, an experience, a condition. As a sculptor, she is sensitive to what the form she works with wants, which path it should take to become a functioning whole. The choice of material and technology needs to be in harmony with the feeling she wants to convey.
In Lindfeldt’s work, inconspicuous everyday objects become filled with new stories and memories. She portrays how the big and the small can be felt, what is difficult to put into words. In her work, the personal becomes something universal. A human experience takes shape.
