Fall 2023, presents the largest exhibition of the internationally recognized Swedish artist Ingela Ihrman to date. With disarming humor and playfulness, Ingela Ihrman's work tackles questions concerning the conditions of one's own existence. By donning sculptural costumes, fabricated by herself, the artist pretends to be someone else; a giant otter giving birth, a blooming giant water lily, a fig splitting in two. At the same time, the work brings forth the imbalance and the problems that have arisen ever since humans began to distinguish themself as superior to nature. Ihrman has previously participated in, among other things, the and is currently on display at The Carl Eldh Studio Museum in Stockholm. The exhibition, which is curated by Mats Stjernstedt, director of Malmö Konsthall, will open on September 29 and run until January 14, 2024. Credits: Ingela Ihrman, 2023.
