Allmän stuga, 2024.

Made at Sculpta Sverige sculpture symposium.

Granit & Steel.

While travelling through Sweden, what struck me was the abundance of cabins along paths, deep into woods, next to lakes or high upon the mountains. These buildings or "stuga's" are lovingly kept tidy and functional for anyone to use often with a toilet and logs of firewood ready to use. Theallemansrätten(everyone's right) also protects the freedom to roam making these northern countries especially welcome to hikers and other outdoorsy characters escaping their daily life.

This work is a monument to the work of the selfless characters that make this possible, making it for us easier to find some introspection in isolation.
