About
Gunilla Klingberg’s practice is characterized by the intersection of received knowledge, folk beliefs, popular culture and divergent cultural activities.
Her work draws our attention to how complicated the connections between these systems are, but it also plays with the things that arise in this encounter, a pivotal feature being an interest in what is produced by the hybridization of distinct cultures, traditions and geographies. The disparate and heterogeneous are interwoven creating meanings that mutate to form a new context.
Klingberg has a heightened sensitivity to the energy surrounding us, which resonates with the rhythms of the cosmos and the pace of nature, while also recognizing the ritual and the spiritual elements of daily life.
