Together with Vilde Stampe and Martina
Garreta Cano, under group name Kalabalik, I have created a public art installation on Taxingeplan square in Stockholm, starting from the spatial idea of Avlu, ‘courtyard’ in Turkish. The Avlu consists of handstitched clothes in construction fabric made with the women’s café at Tensta Konsthall art gallery. Laundry is associated with the private, dirty, invisible chore often ascribed to women. During the pandemic, we look for places for physical closeness, protection and community. By hanging out laundry in the public space, we create a recognisable meetingplace for presence.
Our work was one of the winners of the national design competition Ung Svensk Form 2022.
