Ilar Gunilla och Anna-Karin.

Ricklundgården proudly presents;
Ilar Gunilla and Anna-Karin.

Together, Ilar and Anna-Karin have had a residency in Folke’s studio during the month of March.

Ilar has worked with landscape pictures during her time at Ricklundgården. She has experimented with beeswax as a surface treatment on photographs.
– I have two different themes in my art, one is more political if I think something is wrong or unfair in society. The other is landscape pictures, which have become almost like meditation.
I have tried to get away from the fact that as a photographer you have to do things a certain way when framing photos. Now I only use wood and beeswax.”

Anna-Karin works with a technique where charcoal is always the basis.
– Based on four directions and ideas, I have tested and explored what I should continue to work with. Sometimes you have to end up in the stage where you stand completely still, in order to then move on.”

Ilar is and works as a photographer and artist. Anna-Karin is an artist and works as a nurse.

We at Ricklundgården are extremely grateful and happy that Ilar Gunilla and Anna-Karin have chosen to come to us. Their energy and passion for art is contagious. We would like to thank all participants for the very interesting and moving Artist Talk last Thursday!

On May 22, we will have a choir concert with live music at Saxnäs Church!

The picture shows part of the group participating. Even more dedicated people than those in the photo will take part in the concert itself.

This is one of the many activities we have worked on—and continue to work on—within the Inheritance Fund project KRAM.

Save the date: Friday, May 22 at 6:00 PM, because there will be music!
